Attached is the draft Arc case for updating Lighttpd in SFW. I felt this was needed as it covers the following:
- Obsolescence of spawn-fcgi in the Lighttpd packages - Addition of OpenLDAP and Lua as imported interfaces - Updates to the config file that could have an impact on the out of the box behaviour The last refers to removing 'server.max-workers = 4' from the config file as requested by the upstream community. They won't support multiple Lighttpd workers due to the inability of many of the modules to deal with concurrency correctly. While this fixes the default behaviour of mod_status and will please many as Enterprise Manager stats will now be reported correctly. It may not bode well for scale-out on large SMP boxes with fat pipes and fast storage. We'll have to look into that further. The Lighttpd folks believe that a single Lighttpd worker will scale so well that you'll always run out of some other resource before Lighttpd becomes a bottleneck.
