Docker-Compose with Nginx and PHP -> Nginx Config for Performance

Question

Since a few weeks i'm working with Docker/Docker-Compose and Linux.

I'm wondering if it's possible to tune my nginx Performance. All the info I found online where for standard Nginx on Linux and not in a Docker Container.

Here you can see my Docker-Compose and my Nginx default conf.

Maybe you can give me a hint on what I can do better.

Thanks

According to the answer provided in this post you can increase the performance of the nginx container by running it in the Docker bridge network. Additionally there is another answer that says that running the container in the Docker bridge network it gives better performance as it uses the host's native networking.

Thanks for the answer, so i only can put on network in driver mode Host. Because of that i set the external proxy network into drover host. Is that correct? Now the performance is the same as in the beginning. – benehil Aug 26 '21 at 11:09
I'm sorry, not sure I understand your question. Could you provide more context please? Did my suggestion helped you? – drauedo Aug 26 '21 at 15:37
Sry for the late answer. As the other Thread suggested I set the Network driver into Host mode. But I can only set one Network into Host. Is is correct to set the Proxy into Host because he provides the Services? – benehil Aug 29 '21 at 16:10
