Whenever nginx is sent a HUP signal, the cpu jumps to 100% then slowly
drops until all the nginx worker processes that are trying to shutting
down are done. Those nginx process usually take a while to shutdown
since we’re serving very large files (200MB-2GB). Any ideas why this is
happening?
From the strace below it looks like it all in sendfile but I wouldn’t
think that would so cpu intense.

/usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx -V
nginx version: nginx/0.8.52
built by gcc 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5)
TLS SNI support enabled
configure arguments: --with-http_ssl_module --with-http_flv_module
This is from about 10 seconds of strace of one of the nginx process
while shutting down.

What kind of CPU is used in these moments: system or user according to
top ?

I just sent a HUP signal to nginx and the cpu shot up to 55% user and
another 10% sys.

Do you send a HUP signal to master process only or to worker processes
too ?

I sent the HUP signal to the master process.

Normally, the cpu is at 1% user and system is at 2% when serving
60-90MB/sec.
