Hello,

I did a lot of various experiments with nginx cache. And found that cache has performance problems when number of cache objects much bigger than available place in the cache.
As I understand increasing value in ngx_expire_old_cached_file() makes cache freeing more aggressive. When loads ups more them 200Mb/sec I saw a lot of cache stalls before increasing
this number, from the other side with low load 50 M/s (about 50 requests per second) everything worked fine . Can you please take a look if it makes sense to move this value to config.

return

Thanks.
