wordpress rewrite nginx

[Anonymous Coward]

Worked like a charm...
Even tho' Chris Wells (big thanks again) suggested earlier on irc

                if (!-e $request_filename) {
                rewrite ^(.*)(/wp-content/themes/.*) $2 last;
                rewrite ^/.*$ /index.php last;
                }

which worked too but i didnt managed to reply to list to tell you as i was
testing more stuff on it..
As i was testing with ab2 -n 1000 -c 100
http://sub.domain.tld/blog1/files/2007/02/40kb.jpg getting only ~230req/sec
i noticed that php-cgi got hit everytime and i don't understand why it
happens that when i access a static file which should be served directly
after rewrite by nginx
if i do ab2 -n 1000 -c 100
http://sub.domain.tld/wp-content/blogs.dir/4/files/2007/02/40kb.jpg (which
is the same file only without rewrite) i get ~400req/sec

(should i start another "thread" with nginx and maybe some WP related
questions or i can continue here?)

Thank you again for the great/fast help.
