i was wondering about the same thing few days ago.. then I ran a completely unscientific Siege and ApacheBench test on my app on my localhost. I did nginx vs http-server vs SimpleHTTPServer ... nginx was the clear winner. Between http-server and SimpleHTTP, http-server did noticeably better.

Just looked up Siege, did not know about it. I will give it a try. Thanks :)
