I am using Docker to run some containerized apps. I am interested in measuring how much resources they consume (as far as regarding CPU and Memory usage).

Is there any way to measure the resources consumed by Docker containers like RAM & CPU usage?

Thank you.

You can get this from docker stats e.g:

$ docker stats --no-stream
CONTAINER           CPU %               MEM USAGE / LIMIT   MEM %               NET I/O             BLOCK I/O             PIDS
6b5c0fcfa7d4        0.13%               2.203 MiB / 4 MiB   55.08%              5.223 kB / 648 B    102.4 kB / 876.5 kB   3
