Lightweight & Fast REST Server library for java?

I'm looking for a lightweight REST library.

It must be small (in kb size) an Fast (in total execution time). The optimal solution is a single jar without any dependencies what so ever.

The application is designed to run on the AppEngine so the library should work on GAE/J platform.

What does it mean if someone is a lightweight?

informal. a person who is of little influence, importance, or effect.

What does lightweight drunk mean?

informalsomeone who becomes drunk very easily. Synonyms and related words. People who drink a lot of alcohol. sot.

Is lightweight a single word?

lightweight adjective (NOT HEAVY) weighing only a little or less than average: I need a lightweight jacket for the summer evenings.

What's a synonym for lightweight?

Take a look at http://www.restlet.org/ I have no idea if it will run on the Google App Engine.
