qlua

Dash is an end-to-end webserver (although as written it only supports HTTP GET). It happens to use KDB[1] because my use-case has KDB used for logging and analysis of the HTTP requests. KDB (for all its performance) does not support HTTP keepalive (which this does), and while I have previously used something like nginx+lua+qlua[2]+kdb, dash is so much faster than nginx that it qlua is obsolete for my purposes. Many marginal increases in complexity (for features, perceived "friendliness", autovivification of configuration, and so on) incur exponential-or-worse increases in latency, exponential-or-worse decreases in throughput, and may be the leading cause of defects (including security) in programming: I have observed the enemy of performance and security is abstraction.
