Jay, In your situation I probably would go with Litespeed too. It's easier to setup sites (web interface) and it handles all the processes behind the curtain for you. It will open ruby processes for each Rails site you do (30-70Mb each) so your RAM requirements are surely higher than 150MB. I don't have your full numbers but I'd say 512Mb should probably do it. On the hosting side I would recommend going with Slicehost ($38 for 512, $70 for 1024) which I'm testing right now and it's been great for me and have heard really good things about it. And if you don't have lots of sysadmin experience there is a set of tutorials [1] that is great to set up a secured Ubuntu server with Ruby, Rails, PHP, LiteSpeed and MySQL.
Hope this helps, Adrian Madrid [1] http://www.usefuljaja.com/2007/4/ubuntu-setup-page-1 On Jun 13, 9:08 am, James Hargreaves <[EMAIL PROTECTED] s.net> wrote: > Hi Chris > > Thanks for your post - much appreciated.
