Lighttpd is for tiny files, thumbnails, when the server admin doesn't know about "noatime". In no case will it provide any benefit whatsoever on large files such as videos. For files over 200K, the only difference between lighttpd and Apache is that Apache had had about 10 years worth of improvements and bug fixes since the lighttpd fork.
In other words, if it's not thumbnails you're serving OR if you simply use noatime, all that lighttpd gives you is bugs, problems, and reduced performance from tuning twice as much software as you should.
