If so, it seems like if one were using something like nginx fair proxy,

In a fully loaded server it wouldn't matter at all, but most
environments have a little headroom at least, so that nginx fair proxy
would just route around the mongrel that is still running a GC at the
end of it's Rails loop.

That would only be true if you set the connect timeout on the backend to 1 second AND your GC pass took longer than 1 second.
