It certainly seems that khttpd | is no longer production quality (if it ever was), and tux is.
khttpd is very much production quality on IA32, and has been since 2.4.0-test1. TUX2 is not, however, since under load it enters a 99% CPU busy loop. You may not have enough load to cause TUX2 to do this, and TUX1 may not have this problem.

khttpd is extremely dependent on alignment and data sizes -- the filename extension handling is deeply unfunny* for example. khttpd most likely has a problem with PPC (endian, etc). Are you applying any other patches that could conflict? -- Ken. ken@irridia.com
