The response is sent by nginx when it's available. For static
files and rewrite constructs like "return 200 ok;" this happens
right after the request headers are received, so nginx doesn't try
to wait for the request body before sending the response. In some
cases this might save the client from sending unneeded body to
nginx.

If for some reason you want nginx to only respond when the whole
request body is received, the readily available solution would be
to configured nginx in a way which needs the whole response body
before sending the response. For example, you can configure
additional proxying with proxy_request_buffering switched off (the
default), so nginx will read the whole request body before
proxying the request (and returning the response from the upstream
server):

server {
listen 80;

location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8081;
}
}

server {
listen 127.0.0.1:8081;
return 200 ok;
}

Hope this helps.
