Avoiding the top Nginx configuration mistakes
The worst part is that these problems only manifest under high load. Unless a team does performance testing (for long periods of time? in a highly-production-like environment), they might never know of many of these issues.

Less cynical view: the defaults are designed to work for a majority of use cases and the majority of nginx users aren't running high traffic servers.

It doesn't seem the high traffic settings would adversely affect low traffic instances, which is why these defaults smell so bad.
