nginx is slow to start with many proxy_pass entries
Issue
- Our nginx configuration contains hundreds of
proxy_passentries. When attempting to start, nginx is taking many minutes to start even to the point of reaching a systemd timeout to fail the start up. If we remove or reduceproxy_passentries, then the start time is reduced.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
- nginx
