I've had a jetty instance running on slicehost for over 2 weeks now,
which was just the last time I happened to start it.
I dunno if $20 / month counts as expensive (it's less than I was
paying for hosting before), but I'm not sure you can even find
reliable shared hosting for the more usual suspects like Rails for
much less than $10.
Jetty / compojure has been pretty painless to get running, I'd rather
use routes than mess with mod_rewrite rules for instance. My instinct
is that a simple apache / lighttpd / whatever on port 80 to serve
static content and proxy back to jetty for anything else would be
plenty sufficient for most production needs (along with a real hosting
plan, but that's true of anything).
