can you give me a good reason where to use and not to use Lighttpd? and where does Apache or Lighttpd stand out?

Use whatever is easiest for you. Unless you're running something fancy (and if you have to ask, you sure aren't) it doesn't make a difference performance-wise.
Using the ehtml return value, we can return deep structured erlang terms that correspond directly to HTML code. For example:
{table, [{bgcolor, "tan"}],
{tr, []
[{td, [{width, "70%"}], {p, [{class="foo"}], "Hi there"}}]}}

I always thought shit like that is fucking gay and should be avoided at all costs. Why TF people use something like that is beyond me.. It's not just Erlang, a lot of languages have similar faggotry.
buh? who the fuck cares how fast if a webpage is served in 10msec or 30msec? It can still handle 80k+ simultaneous connections.

If you don't need any of the modules or functionality provided by Apache only, stay with Lighttpd. It is easier to configure and get running.

Use Apache if you want config files worthy of Lovecraft.
Use LightTPD if you want sanity.

No one on the user end cares, and no one on the admin end cares if a user has to wait 10 more msec for a page. But the server may be serving thousands of users. It's the server one is worried about.
If you really want an easy httpd for home use, use boa.
LightTPD I keep hearing is faster than Apache and uses less memory. I had to switch to that from boa because boa does not support https or authentication.

You know, I keep "hearing" that too, but I'm interested in something more substantial.
How does Lighttpd 1.4 compare to Apache 2.2 with a worker or event MPM? The few benchmarks I've seen don't show much difference.
Also, when people mention memory consumption, they don't seem to take into account shared memory or copy-on-write.
So, is there anything comprehensive out there that answers both these questions definitively? I'm beginning to wonder if this is some bandwagon effect.

i was using lighttpd for a while and then switched to apache 2.2. total CPU and memory usage on the server didn't change at all when i switched.
i haven't done any benchmarks, but i figure as long as the server can handle the load i don't need to worry about it.
the reason i switched is because lighttpd doesn't do .htaccess.

The standard security features all programs rely on A program that just prints?
This point of view does not mean that infinity cannot be used in physics. For convenience's sake, calculations, equations, theories and approximations often use infinite series, unbounded functions, etc., and may involve infinite quantities.
