Funny it sounds like Opa (opalang.org).

That said, there is already openresty http://openresty.org which is an incredibly well-managed project, plus Lapis which also seems right in many aspects http://leafo.net/lapis/

I'm not judging, but the license of openresty and lapis also is more usable for many (vs. GPL v3).

Openresty transformed my thinking about the ability to scale something around a web service. I've built some really high scale and low latency (10ms) systems using openresty compiled with LuaJIT that beat out solutions written in pure C/C++/Java and Python.

Thank you for the info!

I just noticed that the developer of lapis also made the itch.io marketplace. As a matter of fact, itch.io was built with lapis.

Indeed :) It's got great performance, glad I chose Lapis to build it. Handling millions of requests and tens of of thousands of payments on a 10 dollar VPS.
