Great post, Paul. Looks like nginx is indeed the better opti= on in terms of performance and stability. Though, going through your links,= I noticed this: "Lighttpd has had support for IPv6 for a long time. I= Pv6 support for nginx is=C2=A0in the works".

I suppose the devs might have a better answer to provide.

I installed CeroWrt two days ago and have noticed that some packages are mi= ssing from its repository. Specifically, nginx, rtorrent, tmux, and screen = are in the official OpenWrt trunk repository for ar71xx ( = http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/ar71xx/packages/= ), but not in the CeroWrt repository. Why is this?

Is it possible for me to list multiple repositories in /etc/opkg.conf, and = somehow specify their priority? Then I could set it to prefer packages from= the CeroWrt repository, but still have access to packages that are only in= the official OpenWrt repository. The opkg page on the OpenWrt Wiki ( http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/opkg?s[]=3Detc&s[]=3Dopkg&s[]=3Dconf#configurat= ion ) doesn't make it clear if this kind of setup is possible.

Speaking of nginx, I've read that it uses less CPU and RAM than lighttp= d and is more actively developed, so I'm curious why CeroWrt's deve= lopers chose lighttpd instead. Does nginx have a problem or a lack of neede= d functionality, or was it not considered?

CeroWrt is a great project and I appreciate the work its developers do. Tha= nk you!
