Thanks a lot for the suggestion. Mine is 1.4.6, which is quite old 
indeed. I will try again with the latest version.

If I use `$body_bytes_sent` in `log_format`, the entry in the access_log is always 0. As far as I can tell, a lot of data went through the websocket, so clearly `$body_bytes_sent` does not include data sent over a websocket.
