Rails does not play well with concurrency, just Mongrel by itself would be slow at serving up static content like images, CSS files, etc., and it would necessarily be limited to a single request at a time.

So we’re going to be using Apache 2.2 as the front-end for Mongrel, which allows us to both serve up static content like it’s going out of style, but also to use a huge wealth of modules, like mod_deflate, which will improve your site’s responsiveness and download time. We’ll run a cluster of Mongrel servers locally, and route requests through Apache’s mod_proxy_balancer, which uses a sophisticated algorithm to make sure all the Mongrel servers feel equally loved.
