Currently, when using a systemd unit (or docker) and limiting nginx to a few cores, setting worker_processes would result in nginx spawning one cpu per core in the system. I suggest to chagne this to use only the amount of CPUs actually available. Example: nginx.conf {{{ worker_processes auto; }}} /etc/systemd/system/nginx.service.d/cpu-affinity.conf {{{ [Service] CPUAffinity=0,1 }}} Should only spawn two processes instead of four. The same goes when using docker, e.g.: `docker run --cpuset-cpus 0,1 --rm -t -i -v /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf nginx` should spawn 4 workers (not that the default image will only ever start a single worker). I wrote a small patch that accomplishes this, not being a C coder or familiar with the nginx code base it's very hacky. It does work however.
