I am running mongrel behind nginx proxy and I am doing upload

there a way to turn this off so that nginx just does a pass
through and lets the backend take care of buffering the file
upload to disk?
Currently nginx always buffer an upload because
1) it is accelerator
2) and to support fault tolerance: if some backend fails, nginx can
resend
the upload to next backend.
I plan to add the upload progress module.
Ok thanks for the info Igor. Is there anything I can do to help get
the upload progress support in quicker? Maybe sponsor the
development? Our customers really need a way to do upload progress
and we use purely nginx and mongrel. I have custom mongrel extension
that supports upload progress right in mongrel already, so is there
no way to get an option for nginx to pass through the uploaded file?
Or would that be too hard to add?
Thanks for your time-
