Have you guys ever written anything on how you configure nginx and FreeBSD in general? Would love to read more about this.


That's a great idea -- I will pass it along.

I'm afraid that most of the interesting "configuration" is to run patched kernel (async sendfile vs aio + sendfile, tls sendfile vs read/encrypt/send, etc). Of course, I work on the kernel, so I'm biased :)

Do you have any idea if or when Netflix plans on open sourcing tls sendfile?


It has always been the plan to upstream it. However, the patch is rather extensive, and it needs quite a lot of cleanup. (for example, making ISA-L pluggable)
