Description
Description
When polling docker stats, I noticed that the NET I/O and BLOCK I/O stats never changed from their values. Upon further investigation, it seems that these two stats only displayed peak stats ever recorded on those containers.
Reproduce
- docker stats
Expected behavior
docker stats should be showing the current NET I/O and BLOCK I/O stats rather than peak.

Research direction
Start by running docker stats while container network and block activity change, then trace the docker stats CLI entry point and its existing stats handling. Done means NET I/O and BLOCK I/O report current values rather than only the recorded peak; add or update a regression test if the relevant test location is found.
