        the passenger screencast is too basic, i had viewed it for the first time a week ago, and i use ubuntu :-) A useful addition will be how to scale with passenger, particularly what apache configuration to use, relation to memory usage etc.

        The screencast doesn't mention scaling out, but it would work similarly to how mongrel does. Add load balancer on the front and point it to a bunch of machines with Apache and mod_rails (you need to run the whole stack since mod_rails can't be extracted from Apache).

        Thanks for having this in the works! I am looking forward to getting this.
        It would be cool if scaling using mod_rails could also be covered in this screencast. (Scaling up and scaling out) Mod_rails makes scaling-up quite straightforward. Increase the size of the server (and memory) and mod_rails handles it gracefully. How would one scale-out using mod_rails, i.e. adding more servers or slices?
