Well, there goes the last reason to bother with mongrels + monit. There was a discussion here a week or two ago where someone was asking about best Rails deployment - the recommendations pretty much came down to Passenger + Apache for ease, or Nginx + mongrels for speed / low memory use. This is the best of both worlds and pretty much puts Passenger at the top of any deployment best practise list. Well done to them.
