I plan on testing it under extreme load eventually. If I do before
someone else does, I'll post my results. But for the mean time, our
set up is working perfectly, so it may be a while.
I'm a big thttpd advocate, so I'd (for no better reaso

Would anyone recommend it for mission critical environments?
