Why not just try it out?  Squeak comes with a Web Server built in -
called a Swiki server (Squeak Wiki).  All you need is a sample page
available on the web a few commands and you're in business.  You may
not want to run this commercially as it allows online editing, but at
least you can test the performance and if it's ok for you, you can
modify the framework.  See the PWS (plugable web server) class et al.
