Looks like we are on the same stage of the learning curve about this stuff.
So, let's share our discoveries with >the rest of the world :)

httperf --server 192.168.1.1 --port 3000 --rate 80 --uri /my_test --num-call
1 --num-conn 10000

The memory usage of the mongrel server grows from 20M to 144M in 20
seconds, it's


This is exactly what Mongrel does when it cannot cope with the incoming
traffic. I've discovered the same >effect today.

You are definitely overloading it with 80 requests per second. After all,
it's a single-threaded instance of a fairly >CPU-heavy framework. With no
page caching it should cope with ~10 to 30 requests per second max.

Yes, it's overload with message 'Too many open files...'. Anyway this test
doesn't shoot the heart of this issue. I should make the other one later.
