Jetty has a super-fast implementation to serve any
kind of page - static, dynamic (CGI, Servlet, JSP,
WebApp). Furthermore, because no arbitrary distinction
between different content types has to be made, and
because the http server and servlet container are so
tightly integrated Jetty can be extremely efficient.
