I use some handlers and they are very easy to use.

I took the cgiluahandler and customised it as far as I needed.  I
didn't really look at performance in any detail, so I drop down into
cgilua to generate my end result pages based upon some parsing of the
http line in the handler.

I think the one thing that may not be entirely obvious from the docs,
is that the handlers provided by the distro can be viewed as
_examples_.
