Having RTFMed on the issue, Mongrel's max number of SOCKETS is 1024, due to the use of select(). And in my case yesterday it was running out of file descriptors way before it hit this limit.
As for threads and their associated context using up memory. This may well be the case. Why does it stay at 150 Mb forever after the load is off, however? Alex
