Description: tiny/turbo/throttling HTTP server (utilities)
 thttpd is a small, fast secure webserver. It features CGI support,
 URL-traffic-based throttling and basic authentication. thttpd has a very
small
 memory footprint as it only forks itself in order to execute CGI scripts.
It is
 designed to be as fast as fully featured web-servers and it performs
extremely
 well under high load.
