Nginx vs. Lighttpd for a small VPS. My VPS is still running nginx with no problems at all.

  1. Simon, I'm having some issues(memory footprint) with apache. Even with mod_wsgi and a lighttpd server for static files.
    Nginx is stable enough?
    Are you using FCGI(maybe with flup)?

  2. I'm not using FastCGI at all - instead, I have Apache running mod_python (and basically nothing else) with nginx serving static files and proxying dynamic requests through to Apache.

    nginx has been fantastically stable for me - it hasn't caused any problems at all, and I've been running it for nearly a year. No memory leaks or anything nasty like that.
