Just FYI: you can always find the blocking IO calls via tools like the off-CPU flame graphs: https://github.com/openresty/nginx-systemtap-toolkit#sample-bt-off-cpu > Does an instance of an nginx module only get > one context per process (thus we need to do our own threading), or is each > instance of the module thread-based to match nginx's threads? > Nginx worker processes are single-threaded. For any I/O operations, you should use nonblocking IO mode and solely rely on the nginx event loop to dispatch any IO events for your fd's. Otherwise your nginx will just degrade to the Apache's prefork mpm. (BTW, use of your own OS threads to work around such things will just degrade your nginx's performance to Apache's worker mpm.)
