Is that the reason? In the past, a kernel webserver called tux (IIRC) was removed because it was just rediculous and the performance gap was considered a solved problem, not worth keeping an in-kernel server around.

I don't think tux was ever included in the mainline kernel. It was closer to a proof-of-concept than a serious http server alternative.
