Interesting to see that the netscaler's SSL capability is weaker than regular HTTP servers. I haven't heard of nginx either, but if the information on the web page is right, it's used pretty successfully further east on this continent. If you have the possibility, you might consider running a load test on lighty vs. nginx to see who does the better job. I like the idea.
