"cache memory"?   What command are you using to get this?

As an aside, it appears you could simplify your config a bit (and make
it more efficient as well):

server {
    listen 80; 
    client_max_body_size 50M;
    server_name www.sample.com;
    send_timeout 20;

    location / {
        root /home/public;
        expires 7d;

        proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_max_temp_file_size 0;
        proxy_connect_timeout 30;

        try_files $uri $uri/ @backend;
    }

    location @backend {
        root /home/public;
        rewrite maintenance.html break;
        proxy_pass http://Sample;
    }
}
