I did some benchmarks of aolserver vs lighthttpd on plain files of
various sizes, on my 8cpu 64 bit server.
For 3 runs, with a 4k text file, the lighthttpd stats were 15103.87/
s, 14845.20/s and 15307.17/s, vs (as Dossy reports http://dossy.org/
archives/000517.html) aolserver's 15237.00/s.
Result: Aolserver is performing virtually identically to lighthttpd
with a small 4k file.
With a 44k JPG (the BookMooch home page illustration) aolserver is
slightly slower:
aolserver: 8164.54/s, 8283.93/s
lighthttpd: 10281.01/s, 9969.91/s
With 1,414k sized zip, aolserver is about 1/2 as fast:
aolserver: 406.36/s, 421.10/s
lighthttpd: 844.05/s, 807.83/s
with a 128mb file, aolserver is 40% slower:
aolserver: 5.42/s
lighthttpd: 8.88/s
And just FYI "hello world" in tcl (<% ns_adp_puts "hello" %>):
aolserver: 950.85/s
I haven't done a "hello world" in C: I assume it'd be close to the
16k/s speed
