I've already set 'directio 2m; sendfile on; ' into nginx.conf.<br>
The server is only serving static flv contents, </font></font><font

When 'aio on' is setting, the server's 4G memory and 2G swap were
consumed by nginx, work_processes just 4.<br>
When I disable aio, each nginx processes used 30M memory only.<br>

When aio is used, I know it should disable sendfile and use directio,
Why it use so many memory?<br>
