Investigating a bit more, here is the conclusion:

location = /store {
internal;
#test 1
#echo_subrequest_async PUT /trucalacon -q 'filename=$arg_filename' -b $echo_request_body;
#test 2
#content_by_lua '
# local filename = ngx.req.get_uri_args()["md5"]
# local res = ngx.location.capture("/trucalacon",
# { args = {filename = filename } ,
# ctx = ngx.ctx })
#';
}
location = /trucalacon {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_pass http://otherserver;
}


using echo_subrequest_async, I directly reach :
2012/05/03 12:08:25 [error] 13204#0: *1 subrequests cycle while processing "/trucalacon",

using echo_subrequest, I get the same behaviour as ngx.location.capture

using content_by_lua + location.capture, everything is smooth.

/store is called by another lua script, which does
location.capture.multi('/store'), 20 by 20

Last interrogation:
What is the best way to discard body (I mean free the memory by body passed to subrequests ) ?
