I use feedburner and as you probably know feedburner warns you when there is something wrong with your sourcefeed. So in fact you know when there's a problem with your blog.
Before I had about 20+ messages/warnings a day and since I added the piece of code below I see about 2 to 3 messages a week or so. Big improvement if you ask me.

I'm on Dreamhost and this definitely works for me, but it might be
worthwhile if you try it on your own hosting provider. I've said for
a while now that most of the time I don't have problems with Typo ...
but with Rails and fastcgi and everything else playing nicely together.
I noticed this in the Dreamhost wiki:
"Dreamhost regularly kills off sleeping processes with their
watchdog. This will kill your dispatch.fcgi processes, leading to
Error 500s from time to time. You'll need to make dispatch.fcgi
ignore all TERM requests by changing how it responds to them."
Sounded very familiar to me so I put the following in dispatch.fcgi
(after require 'fcgi_handler'):
class RailsFCGIHandler
private
def frao_handler(signal)
dispatcher_log :info, "asked to terminate immediately"
dispatcher_log :info, "frao handler working its magic!"
restart_handler(signal)
end
alias_method :exit_now_handler, :frao_handler
end
RailsFCGIHandler.process!
I'd had that code in last summer, and it'd been replaced in an
upgrade and I'd never put it back. To be honest with you after the
release of Rails 1 (and rake and something else I think) I was under
a misconception that I wouldn't need it anymore. But it really has
made a *massive* difference to the number of errors I get.
Dare I say it? ... the install is stable. My log sizes have dropped
by 70% at least. In fact looking in the fastcgi crash log I can see
that it's working:
[21/Jun/2006:01:49:43 :: 4123] asked to terminate immediately
[21/Jun/2006:01:49:43 :: 4123] frao handler working its magic!
[21/Jun/2006:01:49:43 :: 4123] asked to restart ASAP
May be well worth putting that into dispatch.fcgi ... can't see it
hurting.
