This would be very useful for performance testing

Was one of the first things I thought as well.

Looking at the github page I'm wondering how it performs compared to something like nginx. Since I won't use something without https for production, performance testing seems the only real usecase...

https is one of the first features I'd like to implement in the near future :) Do you know if there is some framework that I could test my server with, against eg. nginx? I was looking for one to do profiling, but am unsure if there exist some that allows you to create high traffic with many clients.

You can use `ab`. I'll post an issue about that.

wrk is also a good tool.
