Is it possible to have standalone configuration with nginx?

[Bob131]

Sure, but nginx can only read from one config file. That include setup
is in the default nginx configuration

SCGI does not support UNIX domain sockets yet! (working on it!)

Unlike Lighttpd, nginx require quite a configuration to be usable. Providing just the sample is sufficient.

Maybe we should try to tune all the parameters? see how we can get the best out of Valum? it has a really impressive amount of settings.

You know what they say about preemptive optimization. I think it holds
particularly true here where any attempt to optimize will improve
performance in some instances but reduce performance in others.
Honestly, I'm not sure I agree with the inclusion of these sample
configs for nginx. It contains no information that doesn't appear on
the first page of a Google result (and it ought not to because users
will need to read the docs for themselves anyway to find a setup which
works for them) and as such just provides extra data for bit rot.

Feel free to throw some suggestions out there if you find some options
that should improve performance universally, but I don't know of any
and if I did I would be reporting that as a bug since they seem to take
the principle of sane defaults relatively seriously.

Maybe it would be more appropriate to update the docs then? It's pretty empty: http://docs.valum-framework.org/en/latest/vsgi/server/fastcgi/#nginx

There are a couple of buffer options, I say it could be interesting to suggest size that fit implementation internals.

I managed to test nginx a bit and it works really well! I found (and fixed) a couple of errors under heavy load.
