Forum: NGINX proxy_temp_path is very slow

Hello,

I'm using proxy_cache with nginx. I have nginx set as proxy cache to get 
the file from servers in onother country.

Sometimes I have almost 3000 files in the temp path, and my disk I/O is 
very high. Actually I'm using 2 SSD with RAID-0.

May I know is there any other problems? Here's my config
 proxy_cache_path /var/nginx/folder levels=1 keys_zone=one:1000m 
inactive=7d max_size=300g;
 proxy_temp_path /var/nginx/temp;

If you believe that number of files causes slow IO, why not try
increasing the number of cache directories via the "levels="
parameter?

I have no opinion either way; it would just be one of the things I
would try if attempting to fix this issue for myself.

Regards,
Jonathan
