Lightweight web servers are Web servers which have been designed to run with very small resource overhead because of hardware, environment, or simply for the challenge of it.
Many of these systems have been created as a mental exercise to determine if a modern webserver could be written to run on limited resources such as those provided in a graphing calculator, an ancient Commodore 64 machine, or in 64kb total of memory. Others have been written as commercial endeavors to create webservers with low overhead for embedded systems (network router configuration pages) or low memory environments.
