There is also Process.rlimit. The upside of rlimit, compared to monit, is that it will kill Mongrel BEFORE it exceeds its allocation quota. The downside is that it will not start another. So, if you need to defend against normal memory leaks, monit is a must have (for restarts), while Process.rlimit can be an extra precaution against those cases when something is trying to allocate a lot of RAM at once, and runs the box into swapping hell before monit has a chance to kill the offending process.
