Probably not.  You could try "ulimit -n 1024" before starting nginx
(assuming you have proper permissions).

You'd have to really do something strange in your client scripts to have
a browser open more than 256 connections to a single page load.  I seem
to remember browsers (by default) will only open 4-8 connections to a
single host at once.

Try increasing worker_processes in unicorn (not nginx).
Or try Thin/Puma, since WEBrick works.

unicorn is _not_ a good choice if you're doing any long-lived
HTTP connections or any slow request processing.
