What do you like best about Lighttpd?

I like Lighttpd because I can run it behind the Apache via Apache's proxy module. So in this way, I don´t need to have or add a new server in order to utilize it and It is Extremely fast especially for static content by using low memory footprint and helps in having more connections.

Sometimes Lighttpd will have stability issues and also incompatibility with some of the Apache configurations. Lighttpd is small development with less support community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
