I chased my tail for a few hours tonight debugging an issue where my client seemed to time out on production requests that seemed to go off without a hitch in my local environment.

After a good amount of debugging, it appeared to me that the chunked responses from upstream (likely thanks to #8013) were not being properly handled by one of the proxies in use. (I'm running an Openresty/Nginx proxy on Cloud Run.)

Turns out that Nginx defaults to using HTTP/1.0 for upstream proxy requests, which is crazy to me but that's the way it is. transfer-encoding: chunked was introduced in HTTP 1.1.

It also seems to me that Nginx response buffering isn't helpful to us in this context, so we should recommend disabling it in the sample config.

Had this been documented in the Synapse docs, I feel like I would have caught on to this a lot earlier.

Test failure looks unrelated to this as this is docs-only.

Looks good, and thanks for fixing the example config.

Synapse 1.72.0 (2022-11-22)
===========================

Please note that Synapse now only supports PostgreSQL 11+, because PostgreSQL 10 has reached end-of-life, c.f. our [Deprecation Policy](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/deprecation_policy.md).

Bugfixes

- Update forgotten references to legacy metrics in the included Grafana dashboard. ([\matrix-org#14477](matrix-org#14477))

Synapse 1.72.0rc1 (2022-11-16)
