webservers

came across an alternate open source browser called "lighttpd"
(http://www.lighttpd.net). They claim to be a few times faster than
Apache according to some benchmark study at
http://www.lighttpd.net/benchmark/
After googling around some more I make across this blog titled
"Debunking lightttpd"
http://paul.querna.org/journal/articles/2005/06/24/debunking-lighttpd?postid=82

need to do more research.
