Definitely. This State Threads project seems a waste of time to me. If I 
understand correctly, their objective is increasing web server 
performance by a small factor, namely not changing the order of 
magnitude. To me this is clearly a case where it much less costly to 
achieve the same result by throwing in more hardware. And keep 
programming in AWS with the run time and operative system as it is.
