Pick the Fastest Static File Server

Adam Crockett 🌀 - Nov 9 '20 - - Dev Community

It's tricky that there are no benchmarks for this category. I am looking for the fastest Static webserver to get large files uploaded in a snap. Now I realize that there are several variables involved, I can't solve network speeds. I can however do some compression on the client or chunk requests.

Example:

Use case

What are these files? .gltf 3D models which are actually a json format with a lot of base64 encouraging.
I want to scrape the files in a fast Java service and also have them persist for loading into a 3D viewer.
Files could be 50mb+

So from the server I want to get them in and out of the server as quickly as possible, does anyone have any recommendations for frameworks or servers, language is not a constraint here.
