What are your client_max_body_size and client_body_buffer_size settings?

It seems that your request body has been tainted which could happen
when client_max_body_size > client_body_buffer_size and the body is
big enough buffered to a disk file.

But I cannot reproduce any leaks or thse zero size buf errors on my
side or on our production servers.

It'll be great if you provide the following additional information:

1. your lua library's version (or any 3rd-party patches applied by
your OS vendor),
2. your nginx -V output (or any 3rd-party patches applied by your OS vendor),
3. the precise memory change curve of your nginx worker processes over time,
4. the Lua function call collectgarbage("count") output when you think
your nginx is leaking,
5. sample requests that can easily reproduce the leak on other
environment, like on my laptop.
