This discussion is academic now. The server is about 50 lines of python (with portability and threading for free). The server will serve about 0.0048 requests/second* and the process will get swapped out when inactive. Please feel free to hack something up in the shell, it would be interesting to compare, and a good exercise in testing the libsoup introspection support for servers.
