performance question about cache/buffers (not exactly raid)

Hello, list,

I use 4 disk nodes (2TB RAID5 in each) with nbd.

The question is how can i configure the system, to use more cache (or
buffers) ?
All the nodes have 2GB ram, but never use more than 1.1GB.

[root@st-0001 root]# free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       2072972     913048    1159924          0     838964      24568

The readahead and the performance is very important for me.
I have allready try to tune the vm, but the used cache/buffer is still
unchanged.

If somebody have an idea, please let me know! :-)

Thanks,
Janos
