OK that's officially slow as hell!

ab -n 10000 -c 1000 http://localhost/
...
Requests per second: 11222.37 [#/sec] (mean)

Yes, it does (valgrind reports memory leak in the generic handler).

IIRC, the generic_handler function may need a evbuffer_free(buf) call at it's end.

Hey, I found this page on google just recently and I wanted to add something about libevent, well mainly that 'libev' has been around for a few months now and I think that it has some major advantages over libevent.

Libev doesn't have a built in webserver, it leaves that to the developer to code , or it can emulate libevent if the libevent httpd server is required. I've written a small server based on 'libev' and compared it to other ones. Take a look :

Feel free to take a look http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev.html

cheers,

You sure worked hard including evhttp.h which provided all the functionality for you.
