Suggested containers for high volume rails apps

Ruby JRuby
1

We used jruby for the first time with red5, a flash server, and have
been
impressed by it’s performance. We are also tired of the management
nightmare that is mongrel. I’m interested in feedback from others on
what
setup works well for high volume rails apps. We are currently have
about 10
quad core servers for our rails servers, running up to 30 or so mongrels
per
server managed by monit. In particular I’m interested in containers
people
have had good luck with.

We use Glassfish v2 update 1 for http://kenai.com and
http://netbeans.org. We still use warbler to package our web app into a
war file. We have configured each of our domains to run 5 JRuby
runtimes. You may be able to use Rails in thread safe mode instead of
creating mutliple JRuby runtimes as an option.
