I just tried it out and it's very slow. Using `wrk` to hit a basic endpoint that just prints "hello", I got ~500 req/sec. Using a third party zig implementation, I got ~175000 req/sec.

It's also both cumbersome to setup and use.

Before learning Zig, I used to think Zig needed an http server in the standard library. After using it for a few months, and watching this implementation get added, I think it's a mistake - there just isn't enough bandwidth to support a _quality_ kitchen-sink included stdlib.
