Description of problem:

Various nginx optimization guidelines all over the Web recommend setting
"use epoll" and "multi_accept on" inside the "events {...}" configuration
context for better performance under load.

As it turns out, "use epoll" is the default choice on recent Linux kernels,
but "multi_accept" is turned off by default, which results in clients
experiencing the server as being sluggish and unresponsive when under load.

Adding "multi_accept on" to the default configuration would allow each worker
to immediately accept all new connections.

http://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#multi_accept

I believe adding this setting to the default nginx.conf shipping with
Fedora (at least anything >= 24) and EPEL (>= 7) would be beneficial
to almost every user.

TIA for considering this proposal!
