lighttpd can utilize FAM/Gamin to cache stat call.

possible values are:  disable, simple or fam.

 If your files are changing in size a lot, you might have to have the stat-cache

 disabled

simple (default)

 cache each stat() call for one second.

fam   

 if FAM or gamin are installed and lighty is linked against those libraries you

 can use them to control the freshness of the stat-cache.
