Now, there's no real difference with Mongrel/Webrick if you run nginx

most amount of memory (actually all of them really take the same
amount of memory, you just don't see the ruby process hanging around
using up 140megs of memory).
Um, no. It is NOT well documented, or, if it is, those documents are not
easy to find.
I'll certainly agree with that. Getting mongrel working with mod_proxy
was essentially an exercise in Google and reading blogs.
It doesn't make it better, or worse or anything. (It scales horribly
also for those of you who are talking about scaling).
Actually, "easy to deploy" DOES earn an app significant points with
pretty much any administrator I know. I consider that "better."
Yes. And, frankly, Ruby + gems on most Linux distros is in such a state
that I end up maintaining my own Ruby install from source. Given the
pain of the recent security holes (for example), I find that this is
actually driving me to think I should can it and go for the same suite
of PHP apps as everyone else.
