Hi, I've got an app which will only be dealing with a few requests a minute for most of the time, then will shoot up to a continuous 20 req/s for an hour at a time. We'll potentially be running a lot of instances of this app on the same server.
Is there any way to have additional instances of Mongrel be started when the existing instance(s) stopping being able to handle the volume of traffic. I could preload adequate instances to cope with peak traffic but that will result in a lot of instances sitting idle for the majority of the time. Does anyone have any experience of SCGI? I know that FastCGI will start loading additional app instances after a certain threshold - does SCGI behave the same.
