Description

Lightweight high-performance multi-threaded web server.

A lightweight and speedy web server with a low memory footprint (~500KiB for 10k idle connections), with minimal system calls and memory allocation. Lwan contains a hand-crafted HTTP request parser. Files are served using the most efficient way according to their size: no copies between kernel and userland for files larger than 16KiB. Smaller files are sent using vectored I/O of memory-mapped buffers. Header overhead is considered before compressing small files. Features include: mustache templating engine and IPv6 support.
