Is nginx loading cpu?

Question

Nginx

Hello. I use nginx to proxy video streams (X-Accel-Redirect is used), there are always about 15-20 connections at the same time, but nginx creates a noticeable load on the processor.
Maybe there is something wrong in the config? Can it be optimized somehow?

Very vague, maybe you host it on a calculator :)

Answer 2

disable gzip.
