It's a good HTTPD Dummy. I've mostly used it in debugging purposes - a little as a swiss army knife.

It's not that useless that you're portraying it as. But I do however agree that it's below toy level. It's not for production or long-time use.

Yeah, it does seem a little useful for lightweight development and testing. Though I find it bizarre that anyone doing professional web development can't spare the 1MB for an Nginx or Lighttpd install.
