I need to proxy images from facebook through a different url (one which
I can put a crossdomain.xml file)

Im currently using like 20 mongrels where I run:

  def index
    return unless params[:url].include?("facebook.com")
    headers['Content-Type'] = 'image/jpeg'
    headers['Cache-Control'] = 'public'
    headers['Expires'] = 'Mon, 28 Jul 2020 23:30:00 GMT'
    open(params[:url]).read
  end


However, this will not scale. Since if hundred people are requesting
images at the same time, many will get dropped. Im thinking that I could
do something with apache mod_proxy but I dont know anything about it.

Im sure for a seasoned deployment guru, this probably like 4 lines of
code in some apache config file.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
