I appreciate your responses and am looking at everything to find the problem. Believe me I'm not looking for a scapegoat, I'm looking for a solution. The reason why I think this is a mongrel reliability issue is that when my mongrel server stops responding, its stops responding to everybody! Any browser from any client machine that trys to access any page on the website gets "nada", no response.. I can't even get a page not found 404 error if I feed it a bad address, the mongrel server is locked up and not responding, to anybody. Maybe I don't understand the linkage between my web app and the web server, I didn't think my application by running a periodic update could cause the server to refuse any new connections? Its not like its really busy with a couple hundred requests a second, its 5 requests a second, on a fast server?
