Ruslan,

Not sure if I know a good article on the topic.
Just ensure proxy_buffering is 'on', proxy_buffer size covers maximum possible reply headers  size and proxy_buffers matches 90% margin of your replies (or whatever you think is appropriate). Most of time these recommendations ensures optimal performance for nginx as a proxy.

But more interesting question is if you really need to tune anything.
If your front edge servers are well loaded, do you really need to load them even more?

May be someone else will help with a proper text to read.

    Ruslan,

    This depends on your routing nginx configuration.
    If doesn't have enough buffers to contain a response completely
    and temporary files are turned off, then you will run into a
    situation, when the delay is propagated from client facing nginx
    to a middle layer nginx.

    The fact that only client facing requests are affected proves this
    idea.


Sure it sounds very much like my case. Any pointers on good article on this subject? Probably my goal is to free "primary" nginx servers as soon as possible and leave last mile delivery job to "routing" nginx in front. If there is no articles you know about on this matter then just point me at nginx options I should start from.

        To sum it up: the problem is most likely about clients and
        not the server.
        Discrepancy between request time and upstream time usually
        means that a client is slow or uses a bad connection.
        Basically, this is OK unless you have the only server out of
        many with this problem.
        This in turn may mean that the problem is with that server's
        network connection.



    The issue affects all of our primary nginx servers.

    However, they receive requests from 4 "routing" nginx servers and
    all backends via haproxy. The problem affects only
    requests from the routing nginxs, not backends. I would expect
    routing servers pull data from upstream ASAP. So slow
    clients in my mind should only affect those routing servers
    standing in front.

    Am I wrong?


        Regards.

        Проблема, скорее всего, в клиентах.

        columns: wallclock time, request time,
        upstream_request_time, upstream_connect_time, upstream.

        Please, help me diagnose this problem further as I stuck.
        This is subset where request_time 50x bigger than
        upstream_request_time (just to make subset less noisy). I
        see request times up to 60 seconds. Can not tie it to some
        periodicity. It happens so often that don't see anything
        helpful in strace... I stuck... Any ideas?

        This is nginx/1.10.2 on FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p7.
