After 8 hours of Reddit and Hacker News storm, the gozimhttpd demo process running on f1-micro Google Compute Engine is consuming 80MB of memory (mainly pages cache) still delivering pages !

"Think about accessing any wikipedia article you might need during a power outage, a remote expedition, a natural disaster, or during a visit to an internet-restricted country! Thanks to Gozim, any classroom in the world could potentially access and work on Wikipedia, free of any internet connexion." - http://akhenakh.github.io/gozim/

Sounds like a lot of people would use/need it. Any plans to put it in their hands?

I have to mention it works on Linux and OSX too, I'm using it on my laptop when I go off the grid :)

Looks awesome. Gonna give it a try on my Raspberry. 40GB to download might take a while though ;)

It works on OSX and Linux too !

I'm assuming the 40GB doesn't include any images?

[akhenakh → LeoPanthera]

images included, try the demo, it is exactly what you get offline (except off links)
