Dear All, I am trying to resolve a particular issue that is not getting solved easily.

Nginx is able to route requests but the speed of routing is slowing down..when I am increasing the number of upstream ports.

I have an app which responds in under 500ms. When I route those requests through nginx to about 50 ports, nginx response rates increases to 1500-2500 ms whereas the app can handle large concurrent requests and there are as many as 50 ports.

I have tried this with both fair and e-y load balancer but with similar results.

I have also tuned nginx configuration for response times, timeouts etc but still I see similar results.

Can anyone advise me if they have experienced a similar problem earlier and if they have a solution for this?.

What do you mean by upstream ports ? This

upstream backend { server backend:9000; server backend:9001; server backend:9002; server backend:9003; ... }

In this case you run 50 backend processes and they compete for CPU.
