When I used the ciphers listed in the nginx example, and ran the Qualys SSL server test, I was informed that it was vulnerable to BEAST.

I've used ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:AES128-GCM-SHA256:RC4:HIGH:!MD5:!aNULL:!EDH instead.

It would also be useful to see two server reports - one for each config.

Ultimately, most browsers have implemented a fix for BEAST - so short of GCM, I think only using RC4 is going to be the sure fire thing to stop those kinds of reports. I'm not actually sure I trust RC4 over AES but it sure has been a bad year for CBC!
