HIGH PERFORMANCE WEB SERVER

摘要

The invention is a high performance web server. A single server process on the web server serves data to a plurality of requesters. Should the number of requesters become too great for a single process, further processes will be spawned as required. By utilizing as few processes as possible to serve a plurality of requesters, system overhead to manage processes is greatly reduced over existing web servers. In addition, the invention acts as a cache server by serving data to the requesters from RAM.
