How do you like other players (Cherokee, nginx,...)?


Frankly, I haven't used either of those (though I came very close on Cherokee once). My most recent site[1] uses lighttpd and CGI, which I find to be a very nice setup. This way, I can avoid playing with virtual hosts at all in Haskell and still get a cookie-less domain (http://static.search-once.com/).

Let me clarify my mod_haskell comment: I'm not saying I have no use for Apache, just that when I *do* use Apache, it's usually on a shared host where my only option is CGI. When I have full control over the deployment, Apache is usually too featureful for what I need. So unless mod_haskell got picked up by cheap shared web hosting (doubtful), I can't see a scenario where I'd end up using it.
