Cherokee v0.98: Jailbreak

It has been a while since my last post. Some rough month this has been, oh boy. Anyway, I wanted to let you know that we have released the new and improved Cherokee a couple of days ago.

Since the project has advanced so much over the last months, we have decided to boost the release closer to the 1.0 milestone. Many things have been improved, in stability, features  and performance. The Windows build has received some attention, and though it still has a lot of issues, Stefan de Konik has built a beta Windows package for people to try it out and help us sort out the rest of the problems. Great job as always, Stefan! The admin part is still not running under Windows, but you can always create the necessary config files on another environment and try out the Windows binaries.

In this release the caching mechanisms have been fixed, the web server can now be bound to multiple IPs and ports at the same time, a new balancing strategy has been added (so sticky sessions can now be implemented, for instance) …

To find out more about it, read the official release note for 0.98

Try it out. Cherokee is the fastest web server there is right now.
