4. send static content directly by nginx, without backend server at all
(proxy to backend only requests to dynamic content: *.php, etc)

5. or use X-Accel-Redirect at backend to avoid full transfer of file
(http://kovyrin.net/2006/11/01/nginx-x-accel-redirect-php-rails/)

6. or use https://github.com/defanator/mod_aclr2
