Hi,
Lighttpd or Ngnix. Which one is best for production env?
Kindly throw some reasons for the best one, and also for the
worst one.

ive been reading many blogs about a different setups. most blogs that i
have read, nginx seems very recommended. however, apache has many
documentation to help handle non rails stuff.

It’s not really an either/or thing - it is quite feasible to have
nginx handling all incoming requests, and maybe serving static pages
itself, while passing rails requests to upstream mongrels, and other
requests - php, or whatever - to apache.
I’ve not done any tests, but it just ‘feels right’ to have something
fast at the front end, and so far this setup works for me
