Re: [Mongrel] How many mongrel servers should I run in my cluster?

So you'll be limited by what Apache will put through. Just remember too that if you're not CPU or memory bound yet, or doing as much database as possible, you can always put in more apache's and do poor man's load balancing across those with DNS. - J On Sep 3, 2006, at 12:14 PM, Jared Brown wrote: Haha, yea tell me about it.

Let me know how that works for you. BTW, waiting until the day before your deployment to set things up is a really bad idea.  You usually want to be doing this quite frequently and practicing doing it from scratch for at least a week before your real deployment. -- Zed A.
