  Ah, gotcha. If, under load, you can gracefully return an error and your user will just come back later (like the twitter fail whale), then you might as well keep your queue lengths short which close the window where a waiting user will hit refresh.

Nginx will just buffer it all before returning the entire response to the client so it doesn't affect packetization of the response sent back to the end-user.
