memserve is a web server that serves static web content from memory. It loads all content into memory at startup and pre-computes gzip-compressed variants and ETags, so request handling requires no dynamic memory allocation.

Limitations:

• GET requests only, HTTP/1.1 only
• No TLS, no chunked encoding, no pipelining
• ETags only (no Last-Modified), If-None-Match only (no If-Modified-Since)
• Gzip for text-based content types only, Accept headers ignored
• Connections always persistent, closed after 60s idle
• Max path length: 256 bytes
• Max request size: 4KiB
• Max file size: 32MiB
• Max directory depth: 8
• Max connections: 1024
• Single-threaded
• No Date header (allowed per HTTP/1.1 spec 14.18.1 for clockless servers)
