Description
I'm one of those people that gets really concerned about warnings in my system's logs. I am seeing this one and not finding any reasonable advice about it.
an upstream response is buffered to a temporary file
I've read the proxy_buffering section and related directives documentation and can't really figure out...
- Why is this a warning, at all? (you support file buffering, is it bad?)
- What can I do about it? (should I increase memory buffers? the docs on proxy_buffer_size mention the size being carefully selected and only mention maybe reducing it)
- When should I disable file buffering, if at all?
I see that the warning was last changed some 15 years ago, but I can't find any relevant comments or commit messages to explain any of these questions.

I'm running nginx:stable-alpine in a Docker container (perhaps you have specific advice about file buffering in a container filesystem):

OK, if I simply open a "documentation" issue saying that this should be an 'info' message, at worst, is that gonna get closed, too?
For questions, please use support options available.
