Monkey HTTP Daemon
Monkey HTTP Daemon is a very fast and lightweight Web server for Linux. It uses a hybrid networking model based on asynchronous calls (event-driven) and fixed threads, which makes it scalable and capable of attending thousands of clients per second. It provides a powerful API for C and is ideal for embedded devices, thanks to its small core and plugin architecture.

It fails to compile under MacOS X and the debian.sh script doesn't work under Ubuntu. Not good for a 1.0 release...
I have added a macos X version and meta server code for relocatable scheme bootstrap objects. The framework is in place, still a few serving bugs left. See tullarisc.xtreemhost.c... .
