Yes, I tried different setups this afternoon and this is indeed the way to go :-)
We're thinking about offering both setups to our customers, so mod_fcgid for
the smaller applications. The bigger ones can use the balancing feature of Apache
together with Mongrel.

I must say the I really like the fact that Mongrel starts up really quickly and keeps running.
With mod_fcgid you always have to pay a startup cost.

Thanks,

Yes that's pretty much what you have to do.  And then you configure a
different vhost configuration in apache for each.
