does http://nginx.org/r/proxy_cache_background_update sound like it can
do what you want?

You might be able to achieve most of what you want outside of nginx
by running a "curl" command to fetch the content every few minutes;
the hope being that the curl command will be the one that is waiting
for 5 seconds and causing the local cache copy to be updated, while the
"real" clients are fed from the cache.

Good luck with it,
