World's "Fastest" Small Web Server Released, Based On LISP

[sl4shd0t]

Cougem writes "John Fremlin has released what he believes to be the worlds fastest webserver for small dynamic content, teepeedee2. It is written entirely in LISP, the world's second oldest high-level programming language. He gave a talk at the Tokyo Linux Users Group last year, with benchmarks, which he says demonstrate that 'functional programming languages can beat C.' Imagine a small alternative to Ruby on rails, supporting the development of any web application, but much faster."http://developers.slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rss&op=image&style=h0&sid=09/05/25/1553220 (http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/05/25/1553220&from=rss)
