Sure, I got it. A very reasonable desire for a high performance server. I don't believe this is possible in Hunchentoot as it stands now - the current code is very thread based.
HTTP is a fairly simple protocol and you could use Hunchentoot as a starting point for implementing your system.
Hm. HTTP is not /that/ simple. You need at least three (simple, but still) parsers, then things like Chunked encoding (ok, i can use Chunga for this), and it takes a while to make it "stable". So I thought I could use at least parts of Hunchentoot - but seems like the "critical" Parts are heavily interdependent from the other stuff.
Thank you anyway.
