That leaves me > looking at lighttpd. low-latency responses were my principal reason for writing what became Xavante. the point is that even with mod_lua, the CGILua cycle starts by creating a new environment for each request-response. there are some 'preloading cache' but i think they're not too complete. therefore, i'd suggest you try Xavante; but write your code as 'handlers', not as CGILua apps. you'll get far better performance that way. i've tried to make handlers easy to write; but since (almost) nobody else bothered to try them (CGILua is far more popular), i don't know if they're easy to understand. try it. if you have any doubts, i'll be glad to help. -- Javier
