Description: Lightweight and High Performance WebServer
 Boa is a single-tasking HTTP server. That means that unlike
 traditional web servers, it does not fork for each incoming
 connection, nor does it fork many copies of itself to handle multiple
 connections. It internally multiplexes all of the ongoing HTTP
 connections, and forks only for CGI programs (which must be separate
 processes.) Preliminary tests show boa is about twice as fast as
 Apache, and is capable of handling 50 hits per second on a 66 MHz
 '486.
