Not in my experience, but regardless, for those of use that were there in the beginning (think Rails on FastCGI), Mongrel was one HELL of a nice stop gap.
Thanks Zed.

We had some memory consumption problems also when we decided to migrate and just switching to passenger did little for those. It was really the switch to REE that made the difference. Also the memory was not really from complex database operation, it was for rendering huge erb templates for the Googlebots. In the end there were no reason to always generate those templates and caching solved the problem definitively, but with REE it was already acceptable and we could have let it be for some months too.
What bothers me, though, is how for some at least, Mongrel must be completely vilified before Passenger is able to become the next in a long line of Ruby deployments progressions.
Idk, I just don't understand the need for those type of motivations.
FastCGI -> LigHTTP (+others) -> Mongrel -> Passenger, and it seems like we've had a crucifixion at each stage of development.
But idk and it's late.
