Chris-

        WHen you use monit you can still use mongrel_cluster to manage it.  
You need the latest pre release of mongrel_cluster. This is the best  
configuration I've been able to come up with for 64Bit systems. If  
your on 32bit system then you can lower the memory limits by about  
20-30%

check process mongrel_<%= @username %>_5000
   with pidfile /data/<%= @username %>/shared/log/mongrel.5000.pid
   start program = "/usr/bin/mongrel_rails cluster::start -C /data/<% 
= @username %>/current/config/mongrel_cluster.yml --clean --only 5000"
   stop program = "/usr/bin/mongrel_rails cluster::stop -C /data/<%=  
@username %>/current/config/mongrel_cluster.yml --clean --only 5000"
   if totalmem is greater than 110.0 MB for 4 cycles then  
restart       # eating up memory?
   if cpu is greater than 50% for 2 cycles then  
alert                  # send an email to admin
   if cpu is greater than 80% for 3 cycles then  
restart                # hung process?
   if loadavg(5min) greater than 10 for 8 cycles then  
restart          # bad, bad, bad
   if 20 restarts within 20 cycles then  
timeout                         # something is wrong, call the sys-admin
   group mongrel

check process mongrel_<%= @username %>_5001
   with pidfile /data/<%= @username %>/shared/log/mongrel.5001.pid
   start program = "/usr/bin/mongrel_rails cluster::start -C /data/<%

   stop program = "/usr/bin/mongrel_rails cluster::stop -C /data/<%=  
@username %>/current/config/mongrel_cluster.yml --clean --only 5001"
   if totalmem is greater than 110.0 MB for 4 cycles then  
restart       # eating up memory?
   if cpu is greater than 50% for 2 cycles then  
alert                  # send an email to admin
   if cpu is greater than 80% for 3 cycles then  
restart                # hung process?
   if loadavg(5min) greater than 10 for 8 cycles then

   if 20 restarts within 20 cycles then  
timeout                         # something is wrong, call the sys-admin
   group mongrel

check process mongrel_<%= @username %>_5002
   with pidfile /data/<%= @username %>/shared/log/mongrel.5002.pid
   start program = "/usr/bin/mongrel_rails cluster::start -C /data/<% 
= @username %>/current/config/mongrel_cluster.yml --clean --only 5002"
   stop program = "/usr/bin/mongrel_rails cluster::stop -C /data/<%=  
@username %>/current/config/mongrel_cluster.yml --clean --only 5002"
   if totalmem is greater than 110.0 MB for 4 cycles then  
restart       # eating up memory?
   if cpu is greater than 50% for 2 cycles then  
alert                  # send an email to admin
   if cpu is greater than 80% for 3 cycles then  
restart                # hung process?
   if loadavg(5min) greater than 10 for 8 cycles then  
restart          # bad, bad, bad
   if 20 restarts within 20 cycles then  
timeout                         # something is wrong, call the sys-admin
   group mongrel


        I wen't for a while using my own scripts to start and stop mongrel  
without using mongrel_cluster. But it works more reliably when I use  
mongrel_cluster and monit together.
