Fast httpd (not cern)



Hello,

I use the Cern httpd on a few macines, both as a normal server
and proxy. It works well but for a certain project I need a fast
server for many hits / small documents.

Spinner and NCSA are options but alas, non debian.

Is there a debian version or at least some suggestions
for where to put things to conform to the File system standard?

I have actually had to chose where to put workfiles for cern, i.e.
CacheRoot   /var/spool/proxy_cache/
or did at least not find a reccomendation. Things like not setting a
default dir for the proxy cache in the config file are minor annoyances.

But working with a non debian package is just too much for me.
So could someone please help?

By the way. The reson I nead a fast httpd is that I have just set
up a server with a very nice domain name allowing URLs like.

http://this.is/home
this.is/clinton
this.is/it

We plan to metarefresh to other servers so average page size is
small (Welcome.html = 319) but if one of our URLs were to be
used in an internetional promotional campaign we would expect
to get a lot of traffic.
