mmap syscall doesn't mean file loaded into memory. It means that application can read/write file as memory, and two or more processes can share access to this file without allocating memory and load file into each other. eNGINeX doesn't need this feature, because it is FSM, and not read file at once, it read file piece by piece so fast as peer can receive. In this case best give OS to manage cache and files.
