Thanks a lot!

About the web server implemented by the unit fphttpserver, is it recommended for high load environments?

What the situations where the use of the fphttpserver is recommended and what isn't.

Personally, I use it exclusively for debugging and low-load.

Someone did tests with a high-load performance meter, and I fixed some bugs after that, but I dare not make recommendations based on this test.

In production, I use apache combined with fastcgi. There are simply a lot of tasks where Apache is better suited (or so I hope ;) ).

I'm concerned that this might appear to be "blowing our own trumpet" excessively.

It's already been flagged "might not meet notability guideline", and it might be wiser to instead expand the "Free Pascal Runtime Library" article with notes on alternate targets and also to make sure that the tagging convention is mentioned wherever appropriate so that people know it exists as an alternative to e.g. PHP.

That's why I ask you to expand it. I don't think expanding Free Pascal Runtime Library is a wiser choice, since it's a lower level than FCL and it deserves its own expansion (RTL manages a lot of things as well). Even having FCL only article that explains all FCL stuff is not a wise choice IMHO, there are simply too many things that FCL provides and that's the reason FCL itself is splitted into subpackages.
