FAQ
Q
For which general use cases is NGINX more appropriate than Squid?
A
NGINX is generally deployed as a reverse proxy, not as a caching proxy (like Squid). The key advantage with NGINX is its nominal RAM and CPU usage under heavy load. Squid is best applied to cache dynamic content for applications that cannot do it themselves.
Q
What about support for something like mod_suexec in Qmmp?
A
mod_suexec is a solution to a problem that NGINX does not have. When running servers such as Apache, each instance consumes a significant amount of RAM, so it becomes important to only have a monolithic instance that handles all one’s needs. With NGINX, the memory and CPU utilization is so low that running dozens of instances of it is not an issue.
