thttpd is a GREAT server.
I have a phpMyAdmin rpm including thttpd with php support, for easy MySQL 
administration of sql servers that don't want/need the weight of apache.

Occasionally I see Alan Cox posting to the thttpd list as well, so it must have 
something ;)

I've never used thttpd under heavy load, but everything I gather, it really does quite 
well, and it *is* faster than apache.

What would be nice is if you could set up an apache alias to a full url (maybe you 
can- i've never tried- but I haven't heard of it either) in the httpd.conf file- as it 
would make image and static page serving from thttpd that much easier...
