Are there any plans (timeframe?) to implement NTLM auth with an AD backend? You know, a lot bigger enterprises use NTLM/AD in their intranets as the one and only auth method.

What's the use of an ETag for dynamic content generated outside its application? For example I use etags within my forum project. There I create the etag on the fly based on the board_id+topic_id+page+highrestimer(of the last change in the database). This is done prior to anything else. If...

Well, you should always include more information about the used system. So Processor/Ram (amount+speed)/hdd (type/size/speed) are the minimum. The OS including distro and exact kernel version, which runlevel and perhaps other demons/programs which may influence the results. If you use a real...

Well, ok then. Have you had the chance to take a closer look at my baby then? A couple of features might be overkill for a mere static content server I guess, but it's to be the core of the "real" thing later on.

I thought about that a while ago, but opted to wait until I get the features finished and at least into the final beta stage. As it's now I would have problems to provide a support to speak of to more than a handfull users and hunting for bugs. My work as proxy admin/operator/developer is...

Well, I admit not reading the complete manuals/guides for all the servers I tested. I did usually look into comments on the pages/forums though. I did also disable all that came to mind which could hinder performance as especially hssTVS didn't support them and I wouldn't give it an unfair...

Being the programmer of hssTVS .... Well, I didn't enable epoll for Litespeed because you definitely state in your benchmarks that poll would give better results ... At least I did disable anything else that could degrade performance, like logfiles or htaccess. I'd be happy to change any...

They count only whole domains.

For zero-copy sendfile to work you'll also need hardware that supports this feature. I've only found some rather expensive 1GBit cards with such a support till now. But it's still more effective than pumping the data with read/write and the usage is straight forward and easy to implement. At...

My view of epoll is quite different. In my opinion it is superior. While you have to go through your complete fd set when poll returns to find the active ones, you also have to get the right work data set additinally. With epoll you just register the interesting descriptors once and it returns...

It is true that epoll is slightly slower than poll when used in the same manner. However, if the design of the work loop is changed to actually use the capability of epoll to store an address directly identifying the dataset/class-member, instead going the long way via the port number, the...
