I think you really mean "echo_subrequest_async" here? The
echo_location_async directive does not take a request method as its
first argument, so the "GET" argument above will be interpreted as the
subrequest URI (and "/sub1" will be taken as the querystring), which
is surely not what you want ;) See the documentation for details:

    http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpEchoModule#echo_location_async

And also
