What makes you think that all the cache is allocated for this one specific table?

The buffer manager decides what to cache by itself; there are a few knobs you can tweak (shared_buffers, for example), but for the most part the buffer manager is expected to do its job. In your specific example, it doesn't sound like there's a need to manually tweak the buffer manager: the large but infrequently accessed table will likely not have very many buffers kept in memory.
