There is the client, which talks to nginx; and nginx, which talks to the http or https upstream. The link from the client to nginx can be fast or slow (or variable). The link from nginx to upstream can be fast or slow. Draw a picture of what happens if one link is fast and the other link is slow, with and without nginx buffering the response. Often, the desired aim is that upstream closes the connection to nginx as quickly as possible, in order that it can handle a new request. f -- Francis Daly fran...@daoine.org _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
