If you want to paste your considerations on my stackoverflow question
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19160737/nginx-fastcgi-cache-performance-disk-cached-vs-tmpfs-cached-vs-static-file

I'll pick it as a correct anwser.

Now i'll set up static gzip serving and use comp level 1 for dynamic
content.

Thanks alot. Best regards
