Newb here: have you written your own web server? Seeking advice
The other major thing you'll run into is performance. WEBrick's HTTP parsing code may look hairy but it is fast. Mongrel was the first Ruby HTTP server to implement it's HTTP parser in C using Ragel, which Thin, Unicorn, and Puma all copied; although there's a bug in the original Mongrel HTTP parser where it does not combine the values duplicate HTTP headers (yes, HTTP Header names can actually be repeated).
