>I have been a C/C++ developer for more than a decade and it is really great to see a web framework in C++. We are building a http based streaming server and I have been searching for a high performing web server/framework supporting C/C++ and I came across cppcms.

It comes with built-in web server that is mostly designed for embedded
applications and debugging purposes.
For high load web sites and web sites in general it is recommended to
deploy the CppCMS application via FastCGI or SCGI behind web servers
like Lighttpd or Nginx.
>2. How is this compared to high performing web servers like Nginx?
In terms of serving static files or being feature rich obviously
nginx and lighttpd are way better.
In terms of the application of course for "hello world" like applications
the internal web server would eliminate an additional IPC and be faster
but in real world the are no significant drawbacks running behind
full-featured web servers.
In fact all production deployments of web sites running CppCMS I'm aware of
run behind lighttpd or nginx.
>3. Has this been deployed anywhere for a high performing web with live traffic?

First of all:
http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/who_uses
One of the systems that I developed for one of my clients
provides services for one of the leaning news web site on
some local market.
I can't provide more details right now, but very
soon much more information will be available publicly.
