Configure serving static content with Nginx

You can find Nginx configurations on nginx.conf file.

# Default locaction in mac if you have installed it through homebrew:

	/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

# Possible locations on Unix or Linux

	/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
	/opt/nginx/conf/

Open the configuration file: nginx.conf and locate server block under http block.

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  java2novice.com www.java2novice.com;
    access_log   logs/java2novice.access.log  main;

    # serve static files as per the below configuration. The static file will be cached for 5 days
    location ~ ^/(images|javascript|js|css|flash|media|static)/  {
      root    /var/www/java2novice/htdocs;
      expires 5d;
    }

    # pass requests for dynamic content to rails/turbogears/zope, etc 
    location / {
      proxy_pass      http://127.0.0.1:8080;
    }
  }

When to use LinkedList or ArrayList?

Accessing elements are faster with ArrayList, because it is index based. But accessing is difficult with LinkedList. It is slow access. This is to access any element, you need to navigate through the elements one by one. But insertion and deletion is much faster with LinkedList, because if you know the node, just change the pointers before or after nodes. Insertion and deletion is slow with ArrayList, this is because, during these operations ArrayList need to adjust the indexes according to deletion or insetion if you are performing on middle indexes. Means, an ArrayList having 10 elements, if you are inserting at index 5, then you need to shift the indexes above 5 to one more.
