Actually, it might be even faster without an OS, depending on what your CPU 
does besides serving web pages. depending on your main loop, there may be a 
delay introduced between the MAC receiving a packet and the web server 
processing it. However, throughput should not be affected.

Don't know about hIp, but there's a web server for lwIP in the contrib module, 
so you don't have to use the uIP one.

That largely depends on your hardware and the MAC driver.

Take the one from contrib. It has CGI and SSI support by now and is stable 
enough for my current product... :-)
