Interesting. But (and I'm unsure of *exactly* what thttpd does) 2.4 also
has a httpd built into the kernel, capable of rendering static content
at "blistering" speed. So you could use Apache for dynamic, the kernel
daemon for static.

Without any benchmarks (or even a hardware profile!) I can't really add
much more. But it's worth looking into.

Incidentally, the must 2.4 gung ho distro seems to be SuSE, which I rate
well above RedHat in terms of value, support and stability.
