mod_ruby is dead and has lots of issues. If you don't want to deal
with Mongrel as an app server, you could try Passenger (<http://

with the need for a separate application server. It's quite new
(only released a few weeks ago), but has been getting a lot of good
press thus far, and is trivial to set up.
Yeah, what Scott said. I'm running Typo through Mongrel, with a
squid in front of Apache for performance. I plan to have it running
under Passenger as a preferred direction, but in the meantime what
most folks do is run several mongrels with apache mod_proxy_balancer
(IIRC). RoR hosting tends to be different than vanilla hosting, or
at least your vanilla hoster needs to be pretty agile. These guys
run 43 Folders, e.g. :
http://www.a2hosting.com/ruby_on_rails_hosting.php
Though I haven't tried them (yet). I think running Typo without a
Passenger/Mongrel persistence layer would hurt. A lot.
