Hi.

I’m new with nginx and want to know if it is possible to implement this  
architecture because we’re having a very poor performance over the same  
tests against local installations.

For test we have 2 hosts. One with nginx+php-fpm+apc reading our php  
code locally, and another one with the same server/software but reading  
our php code from a NFS volume provided by a filer.

In the stress tests, the first one has a 12 requests/sec ratio but the  
second one has only about 0,6 req/sec. The filer performance is OK since  
we have a lot of apache servers serving our front pages from the same  
volume without any problem, and the data collected by the filer tools  
are OK.

So, what can be wrong? If need any piece of confs, please let me know.

Regards
