prathapml Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 LightTPD:Security, speed, compliance, and flexibility--all of these describe LightTPD which is rapidly redefining efficiency of a webserver; as it is designed and optimized for high performance environments. With a small memory footprint compared to other web-servers, effective management of the cpu-load, and advanced feature set (FastCGI, CGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and many more) LightTPD is the perfect solution for every server that is suffering load problems. And best of all it's Open Source licensed under the revised BSD license.http://www.lighttpd.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBHoenig Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Lightty has caught my interests recently; I don't think it is in the Ubuntu apt repos yet, and I don't have the time to compile and configure it right now... has anyone here used it? How does it stack up to Apache? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-I- Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 lighty is as old as it can be, and in certain points its as usefull as apache, but only to single server enviroments and only if not to mutch complicated is required, apache for example has ten times as many aditional features and modules, and verry advanced features like load balancing etc. - but lighty isn't called lighty for nothing, also i know for a fact that lighty has verry good performance in embeded or close-to-embeded-like systems, anywone should be able to run lighty on systems where apache might be just a bit of overkill, the only 'problem' i have with lighty is that it hardly has any webbased-controll-panel support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
