Benchmarking Nginx on a prehistoric PIII 500

[Thomas]

Yeah that could be the problem, I just realized I was testing from my
server. My other box is windows, so I'll have to install cygwin to
compile httperf, because I am not aware of any available binary for
windows.

It was too strange that 1 Mongrel would perform as well (or as bad) as
2 thin servers. Also the apache and nginx results are too close, there
is no reason why I get the same result.
