http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighttpd
"
Lighttpd is used by some of the biggest websites, including
sites such as YouTube, Wikipedia and meebo. Wikimedia uses
Lighttpd for some of its services[4][5][6][7] as does
SourceForge.[7][8] Three of the most famous torrent listing
websites, The Pirate Bay, Mininova and isoHunt, which have
more than 1,000 hits per second, also use Lighttpd.[9]
Lighttpd currently holds fifth place on the Netcraft "Web
Server Survey" (November 2008).[10]"
