Wait till you try using conditional blocks in Lighty's
configuration files… [1]

[1] lighttpd supports conditional blocks for a number of
predefined variables, including http host, … – but only
evaluates the first (or was it: last?) one of a kind, and
silently discards the other ones. Especially funny if you use a
Debian-style configuration where configuration is split over a
number of files (conf-available/conf-enabled directories).
I think I remember that from when I was running Lighty, it seemed
awesome at first, then quickly became a nightmare to manage.
Yeah, I went Apache -> Lighttpd -> nginx for webservers, nginx is
definitely the best so far. Not as many features as Apache, but I
find it suitable, and (F)CGI is plenty fast enough using a local
socket.
