Hi Dennis,
Sorry I think that word is already mentioned that I have a problem with disk i/o.
That's why I'm asking wether I need onother software to be used together with nginx so I can give a best performance

This looks fairly benign to me. You get lots of random reads so you can
expect the cpu to wait for i/o occasionally.
One remedy is to spread the data across more disks and the other is to put
more ram into the machine so more data can be cached.
I have a 30TB system using 48 disks and two controllers here where the I/O
wait is on average 85% yet it delivers the data with fairly low latency.
You never actually mentioned what your real problem is (you just said "Now
on we're having problem with disk i/o".)
Regards,
Dennis
