Hi all !

A couple of days ago I was testing some web servers
performance and downloaded Cherokee to test it too. By
mistake, I downloaded 0.4.9 thinking it was the latest
(it was a t the bottom of the download page). The
performance was superb ! With httperf (benchmark tool)
it could handle 3450 requests/second, while apache
1550 and lighttpd 2600 (this was using an HTML page of
about 17kb).

However, I realized after that the latest release was
0.4.27, so I downloaded and tested that one. The
performance dropped from 3450 to 2750. So my question
is:

Is this a known and accepted thing? I know performance
is not the only thing a server has to think of, so
sometimes you need to implement some feature that lags
performance. So if that's the reason, fine. It's still
a ver fast server. But if not, it would be worth
investigate to see what happened... If you have
interest, I could try to test all releases to see at
what point/s the performance loss happened so you can
find the cause.

Regards everyone.
