Memory consumption of ningx

[peschuster]

I don't use any third-party modules, neigther SSL or gzip. nginx was
compiled using the following parameters:

> --with-debug \
> --without-http_rewrite_module \
> --without-http_gzip_module

nginx only serves one static file. Changing the size of the file (10 KB to
200 B)  has no effect on the memory comsumption of nginx.

Here is my nginx.conf:

> user  nobody;
> worker_processes  1;
> 
> error_log  logs/error.log;
> 
> pid        logs/nginx.pid;
> 
> events {
>     worker_connections 768;
> }
> 
> http {
>     include       mime.types;
>     default_type  application/octet-stream;
> 
>     log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local]
"$request" '
>                       '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
>                       '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
> 
>     access_log  logs/access.log  main;
> 
>     sendfile        on;
> 
>     keepalive_timeout  65;
> 
>     
>     server {
>         listen       80;
>         server_name  localhost;
> 
>         location / {
>             root   html;
>             index  index.html index.htm;
>         }
>     }
> }
