I am running a small commercial site on dedicated VPS ("dedicated" means there is only a single website on this VPS). Initially, I enabled Nginx in "Smart static files processing" mode, but after a few days of testing I disabled it as the average page loading speed was 15% lower without Nginx.
I was very surprised by this and my only explanation here is that the site has relatively small traffic of 200-250 visitors per day and the overhead of Nginx running was too significant to balance its benefits with such low traffic.
