Hi, all,

Just finished here ([http://blog.kovyrin.net/2007/08/05/using-nginx-ssi-](http://blog.kovyrin.net/2007/08/05/using-nginx-ssi-)  
and-memcache-to-make-your-web-applications-faster/) my detailed  
description of how we cache rails sites in our project - this idea  
allows me to handle hundreds of queries with one server running pretty  
slow (yeah! it is slow even after all optimizations on MySQL side and  
lots of tweaks in site’s code) Ruby on Rails application.

Thanks,  
Alexey Kovyrin
