Re: khttpd
kHTTPD is a pre 2.4 kernel thing as it's no longer in the Linux
kernel. It got removed in aug. 2002 with the release of 2.5.30
Usefullness was for static web pages where operation can be reduced to
a simple "copy file network" [from net/khttpd/README]
An async sendfile(2) can be used from user space to achieve good
performance for this type of problem space.
A good read on the subject from Alan Cox at
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/9906.2/0497.html
