Is vibe-powered backend app really runs notably slower then 
`nginx` when serving static files?

I looked on D lang in web backend as a great alternative for 
mainstream servers such as `nginx` etc especially with its 
ability to serve files the the same rates or even more faster. 
Not for a large sites but mostly embedded application such as 
vending machines with local-only web&touch interface, or powerful 
SOHO routers and home automation controllers.

Putting all files into an executable also makes it available 
directly from RAM without any caching, so `sendfile` syscall can 
be just run for them with direct data pointer, almost without 
impacting on the app does anything else.
