Their servers are a great fit for sites running on Java, Ruby on Rails or exotic setups like nodejs, django, Erlang or you name it. I recommend avoiding any kind of ‘shared’ hosting for your Rails apps. A headache waiting to happen. ---

I disagree. Lighttpd proxied through Apache is nice in a shared setup. I have it so I can restart my Lighttpd instances anytime I want. The hosting provider never has to mess with Apache as far as helping me with restarts. Not being able to restart your Rails app is very difficult to deal with sometimes, so this sort of proxied setup works great IMO. – Greg D.
