Thank you very much. This does indeed seem like a useful tool. I will research more into it.
The web2py installation was running on a 128mb Xen vps. As mentioned earlier, we used apache to reverse proxy. We had 17 users login at the 1st try simultaneously. Just trying to access the login page of our web app spawn off lots of apache processes and we believe that allowed only a few users to access the website. We subsequently reconfigured to use nginx as a reverse proxy and that worked out much much better.
