I'm curious if anyone has thought of just embedding v8 inside the HTTP request handler of an existing high performance web server. I was looking at libmicrohttpd which is a embeddable web server written in C which threads each incoming request. This would allow for safe synchronous (blocking) calls of functions within javascript since each request would be handled by a separate instance of the javascript interpreter.

This suggestion is too far out the current operation parameters of the iojs project.
E.g. iojs/node specifically don't use a thread per request.
Libmicrohttpd is GPL-licenced and therefore a no-no.

Please take it to a mailing list or stack overflow.
