OTOH, apache has more and more evolved into an application platform, and is much too big and too heavy for serving content efficiently. no one running a high-traffic site is choosing apache these days at the front line. in contrast, single-process event-loop multiplexing web server are gaining share, like lighttpd [1], and i see node.js in the same vein. yes, it takes a bit to make a piece of software solid, but i don't see why this should not happen to node.js. if everything goes well, node.js is the new lighttpd. t.
