I'm having no problems with Tux.

I've been running TUX on a dual Pentium 3 800Mhz built-from-parts system
With 1.2GB of ram and a couple 16GB Ultra SCSI 160 drives.
RedHat 7.0 with 2.4.18 kernel.

Tux is using 2 thread, one for each CPU.
I run Tux standalone (with no client partner) on its own virtual IP address.

The server otherwise runs Apache (with mod_perl and a ton of Perl code 
loaded into it) which access a few MySQL databases, named and email are 
also active.

I originally had a problem with TUX running a high-load when it ran on the 
same IP as my Apache but on port 8080.  It went away when I moved it to 
port 80 on its own virtual IP address.  The problem turned out to be Tux 
calling itself back on port 8080 (clientport) and looping when it got a 
page it didn't know about.

I'm not interested in Tux's pass-through abilities, I just want a fast 
server for static HTML and image serving, which 3 of the Apache-bases sites 
use by linking (they each have their own virtual IP as well).  I'm trying 
to avoid using the Perl-laden Apache process for serving static content.
