If you return control to the nginx event loop while generating the 
response, you may set appropriate events to detect if the client 
closed the connection.  See ngx_http_upstream_check_broken_connection() 
and related things in the ngx_http_upstream.c for an example.

Log module, once you use $bytes_sent (or $body_bytes_sent, as 
logged by default) variable, logs the number of bytes sent to the 
client.  It is not the same as the number of bytes actually 
received by the client though, because there are bytes which are 
sent (i.e., passed by nginx to the socket buffer) but not yet 
received.
