Oh, I didn't know tux was still alive, but they've only renamed it ;)

1. Kernel-Space-Webservers are evil, they're even more evil if you're 
using dynamic pages with cgi.

2. If you need a small, high-performance webserver, look at thttpd or 
fnord which are as fast, but a lot more secure. These are meant for 
static file serving.

3. If you want Typo3, you won't want anything but apache+mod_php+php 
accelerator. Tiny webservers are for static content, so what you gain 
from using them with static files you'll lose with cgi because PHP will 
be started for every request. I don't think you'll beat mod_php even 
with scgi or fastcgi.

To answer your question: No, I haven't used it, but only because it 
seems like a bad idea.

Cheers,
Michael
