All good points which reinforce the idea that the only benchmark that
really matters is the benchmark of your specific application.

I was only once in a situation where I had nginx and apache serving the
same content from the same server. I could start whichever I wanted. Nginx
was clearly faster -for that content-. It was a simple web application,
retrieving content from a few-gig local MySQL database. YMMV.
