Features

Speed — Provides higher performance with both Static and Dynamic Content than any other Web server. For example, it's more than 3 times faster than Apache. See our Benchmarks
Power — Maintains performance under load and never degrades. Serves hundreds of Virtual Hosts / connections / clients like it's just single one
Low resource consumption — Bauk can use as little as 10% of system resources compared to Apache in a similar configuration and usage pattern. A typical Linux instance runs around 2MB of memory for Bauk itself
Advanced Memory Management — Always returns memory to system. Does not hang on unused memory but returns it to system for further use. You can notice by programs like "top" or "ps" Bauk server returns to original size as it releases memory
Static and Dynamic Content — Server-Side JavaScript, PHP, Perl, Python and Tcl support
Single-Process Architecture
Unlimited Virtual Hosts — Allows serving any number of Virtual Hosts on a single machine without direct limit
Dynamic Virtual Hosts — Add/remove hosts on the fly without restarting server simply by adding/removing directory, ie. www.domain.com --> /path/to/www.domain.com/
RDP (Reverse Domain Path) Virtual Hosts — Ie. www.domain.com --> /path/to/com/domain/www/
Unlimited simultaneous HTTP connections / HTTP clients — Shared hosting or popular sites, serve any number of simultaneous connections on a single machine

Bauk HTTP Server Web site is in entirety powered by Bauk/GromJS.
Here is an example JavaScript Web script:

//print env variable
print(<html><body>);
print("User Agent: ", Server.getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT"), "<br>\n");
print("Remote IP: ", Server.getenv("REMOTE_ADDR"), "<br>\n");
print(</body></html>);

Output:
User Agent: CCBot/1.0 (+http://www.commoncrawl.org/bot.html)
Remote IP: 38.107.179.227
