[LRUG] Mongrel

[Chris Parsons]

Hi all,

Thought I'd break my long lurking silence to say that I've had much  
success with Apache 2.0 and Mongrel, using mod_proxy. Sure, you can't  
run multiple mongrel instances direct from Apache with plain 2.0, but  
you can use Pound to achieve the same effect.

True, unless you have many dynamically served images per page (like  
I  have with one app), as each image then hits the mongrel process  
hard. Mongrel serves dynamic requests concurrently (because of  
aforementioned threading issues), so it'll end up rather slow if you  
don't have multiple instances.

Cheers
