So, let's put this to the test: 1) Should Mongrel support a larger set of default mime types?I'm strongly in favor of this. Especially for core defaults like xml, atom, and rss. It would mean that Rails page caching would Just Work even for these common caching types.Could you explain this? Mongrel is very unlikely to serve cached pages.That's usually handled by apache/lighty. I ran into this the other dayand had to adjust my apache rewrite rules to look for cached .xml filesrather than just .html files.
There are plenty of situations where the load requirements do not dictate involving another web server. It'd be nice if Mongrel was feature-wise capable of standing on its own. Mongrel is still capable of serving hundreds of static files per second on most machines. That's plenty for a large array of applications, including predominately internal ones.
