Hi Wade,

At least provide the access/error log fragments, curl -ivvv <..> outputs 
directly to the 3rd party service and via the nginx,
jmeter (if you use that) outputs would make sense. Also, it would be nice to 
compare nginx configurations from the mac and linux.

Currently it’s barely possible to conclude something relevant about the issue, 
having exactly the same nginx configurations, 
and getting different results looks rather strange. 

Hint: change ‘error_log’ directive’s level to ‘info’, check error/access logs, 
gather tcpdump. And if that won’t make the problem
clearer, start nginx in debug mode. this article should be useful:

br,
Aziz.
