Performance for static files

[Christof Baumgaertner]

We have a webbased client/server application which in addition to its
dynamic elements has to serve a huge amount of small files (HTML, GIF,
JS). I understand that Orionserver's performance for J2EE based
applications is pretty good. How about serving static files from the
file system? Can it compete with high performance servers like AOL
Server, Stronghold Apache or others in this area?

Thanks,
Christof
