I'm looking for a lightweight portable web server for windows capable of serving arbitrary folders in the file system and supporting at least one scripting language. It shouldn't need to setup htdocs folder and config files. For test purposes.
Apache eats up a lot of RAM.

I don´t believe that apache is either portable nor configless

WLMP Project (Windows / LightTPD / MySQL / PHP.)
You can download just the LightTPD server, or the whole package.

There are quite a few. Wikipedia has a comparison here. I've been using Mongoose, and am very happy with it.

Mongoose is portable between Windows and various Unix flavours - are we both talking about the same product?

I think he means portable as in it'll run from a USB stick with no installation.

HFS http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/ often suits my needs very well, for example in the classroom. It is not scriptable though.
