Stalled connection when using `aio_write on`

[aminvakil@…]

Connection gets stalled most times and does not continue downloading files most of times, here is the configuration files:
/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

worker_rlimit_nofile 40000;

user  nginx;
worker_processes auto;

error_log  /var/log/nginx/error.log error;
pid        /var/run/nginx.pid;

events {
    worker_connections  1024;
    use epoll;
}

http {
    server_tokens off;

    include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    access_log  /var/log/nginx/access.log main buffer=2048k flush=10s;

    open_file_cache          max=10000 inactive=5m;
    open_file_cache_valid    2m;
    open_file_cache_min_uses 2;
    open_file_cache_errors   off;

    sendfile on;
    sendfile_max_chunk 512k;
    tcp_nopush  on;
    tcp_nodelay on;
    output_buffers 2 8k;
    keepalive_timeout  15;
    http2_idle_timeout 1m;

    # SSL
    ssl_session_timeout 8h;
    ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:100m;   # one megabyte can store about 4000 sessions
    ssl_session_tickets off;
    ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
    ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
    

    include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}

/etc/nginx/conf.d/example.org.conf

upstream cdns {
    server cdn1.example.org;
    keepalive 20;
}


server {
    listen 80 reuseport;
    listen 443 ssl http2 reuseport;
    server_name cache.example.org;

    ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/example.org.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/example.org.key;
        
    root /usr/share/nginx/html/;
    aio threads;
    aio_write on;

    location /apk-files/ {

        proxy_pass http://cdns;

    }
}

Then using http2 to connect to server gets stalled like this about 90% of times.

I couldn't reproduce the issue with curl --http1.1 or after commenting aio_write on.
