Furthermore, the behavior of the --clean feature isn't very elaborately documented (at least not in the output of mongrel_rails cluster::start -h). I left this comment on the ticket (no way to reopen it I guess): ---- The patch mentioned checks if the pid files refer to running processes. Does the --clean feature do this? Or does it just blindly remove the pid files? An additionally nice and easy feature would be to check if the running process contains the string "mongrel".
