A site I'm working on will have a simliar setup -- 3 web servers with dual dual-core xeons, though with less ram (4 to 8 gigs). This would be behind Apache, though, would that change the recommendation of 4 per core? I plan on doing plenty of tests with http-perf, of course, just looking for a good starting point. - Rob --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Deploying Rails" group.
