Maybe I/O is too high ? 
Use memcached can avoid this .

Adding unix socket support to ngx_http_memcached_module should be easy,
but I'm not sure if memcached suppot unix sockets.

BTW why do you serve local images from memcached ?
It's better for both CPU and memory to serve them from local filesystem
using sendfile.
