Sorry I should have qualified that with "if you want load balancing".
I've avoided it due to memory constraints and have not had any real
problems on a low traffic site.

My rule of thumb for load balancing would be anything where it is
going to cause you pain/embarassment/financial loss if a user has to
wait for a unresponsive site.
