Not special for lighttpd but special by the sense not included in the  
distribution repository. Is it possible by the way to run a  
PHP-accelerator (APC) with lighttpd? As far as i see some say yes,  
some no and others it doesn't matter because no speed improvments.
We have some underpowered machines which get bogged down without PHP cache.
My VPS is with Horde/IMP/Postfix/Cyrus/PostgreSQL with 150MB RAM used  
at the moment and 256 granted :-)
Works well after some fine tuning for a small number of concurrent  
users but we expect to grow.

We don't use rewrite rules until now.
