Depending on how far you want to push the model, it's not that hard. Obviously you can't do "co-routines" but just using the current ideas about requests and sub requests, you could easily do the subrequests in parallel. FWIW, nginx can use Lua co-routines to do this and does it "natively" with SSI's. The code, however, will make you go blind ;) My biggest issue with HTTPD really comes down to connections per OS image. In general, threads suck at this - memory "per connection" and context switches just kill you. "C1M" is just not that hard to achieve nowadays. -- Brian Akins
