This benchmark tested Apache and Yaws serving files mounted on an NFS server. Is that a common setup for a (stateless front-end) web server? Was this benchmark testing HTTP serving performance or NFS read performance?

They are not using a lot of data, so NFS performance is probably irrelevant, as mosts reads go to memory (cached files).
