nginx been doing the same thing since a long time:
http://wiki.nginx.org/Main - nginx performance is way better than apache for
concurrent requests, the problem is that it's way easier to find servers and
people that knows how to use apache.

PS: you can also run JS on nginx ( http://wiki.nginx.org/V8cgi )
PS2: not all applications require an insane amount of concurrent requests..
PS3: check jsconf2010 slides for some benchmarks (
http://nodejs.org/jsconf2010.pdf )
