On a 150 Mb VM, you may not be able to squeeze more than one Mongrel in. And if one request stalls in that single Mongrel, your entire site goes unresponsive (Mongrel w/ Rails is essentially a single-threaded process). For any decent uptime, you need at least two Mongrels and a software load balancer of some sort. Some sort of monitoring for crashing Mongrels / endless loops / memory leaks is useful. Also, 150 Mb of RAM may prove insufficient for more than a single Mongrel. Have a look here: http://studios.thoughtworks.com/rubyworks. This may be about right for your needs, if you reduce the number of Mongrels in the cluster from 4 to 2. -- Alex --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Deploying Rails" group.
