As others have pointed out, it may have big hacker value, but no one
would use it for anything serious. AFAIK there's no such thing for
FreeBSD, but one thing I remember, is that once the Linux kernel incorporat=

performance increase on par with khttpd, so it seems that's not worth to
run a http server in kernel space.
