You should enable page caching, but have proper sweepers so that the cache is deleted. Also, when your mongrels are down (which should happen only on new code rollout), ensure that your webserver rewrite rules searches for maintenance.html (assuming ur using capistrano), and if that exists, only display that. Proper configs are all over the net for Apache, nginx, and with a few hacks, lighttpd. Also, on mongrel-cluster start/stop, you should delete your page cache. Searching for a "page cache" tutorial on Google would help.
