Trying out mongrel instead of thin
UPDATE: I tried out thin again, but ran only one server for my two small apps, and then ran 3 thin servers for my large app - twinstang.com. Much faster. See the output difference. I’m sticking with thin, but will stay light on the amount servers from now on. Mongrel was just noticeably slower and that bothered me.
I am trying out mongrel instead of thin for one of my apps on my slicehost. I was running 3 apps, but my swap kept getting used slightly.
So far the mongrel is definitely slower than the 2 thin apps running, but my swap is now down to zero as I would like. Maybe mongrel is lighter on the server than thin?
