Thin is a very simple web server written in Ruby. It's single-threaded, which
means it can only serve one request at a time. This simplicity affords
increased speed and decreased memory usage for singled-threaded framework like
Rails.

Thin is a Ruby web server that glues together 3 of the best Ruby libraries in
web history:

- the Mongrel parser, the root of Mongrel speed and security
- Event Machine, a network I/O library with extremely high scalability,
performance and stability
- Rack, a minimal interface between webservers and Ruby frameworks

Which makes it, with all humility, the most secure, stable, fast and extensible
Ruby web server.
