While I appreciate the time and effort that went into this, I'm more concerned with security than just speed alone. It's still relatively easy to throw hardware at the load problem (up to a point, naturally), but safety shouldn't take a back seat to performance. The wget shell script installation does make me nervous and I'm glad the source is available separately. Blind installation of scripts was never "a thing" with me. Of course, I'm still glad people are writing proper web servers (as opposed to simple 2-10 line ones). That creates an opportunity to explore the field with fresh ideas.
