I love the idea of being able to remove the webserver from my stack, and be able to give that job to php too. Less deps!

Indeed. And funny enough, by writing it in PHP, I was able to make it spawn 100x as many workers on the same machine, and thus serve more 100x more users from one machine. On a 4GB machine it can handle 40,000 simultaneous users, and not just for HTTP but websockets too. It is extremely efficient — built for entrepreneurs like the ones on HN. Try it
