THe fact that it's a intranet app doesn't really change much -  
whatever you read about normal deployments is still ok.
If you run just mongrel or just webrick you will not be able to  
process concurrent requests (and it's a bit wasteful to be using them  
to serve static content like your images and stylesheets).
Most people are either using apache/nginx to load balance to some  
mongrels or increasingly, mod_rails (also known as passenger)
