I'll probably still have to scale myself... This sounds painful. Dokku is only a single VM solution though, right? Flynn (http://flynn.io http://flynn.io), the all grown up Dokku, isn't production ready yet. I'd love to hear that I'm wrong and that scaling up with Dokku is a piece of cake. If so, please correct me!

Just curious, what are you guys doing that you need to "scale up"? Even if you get a hundred thousand hits in an hour, that's only 28 per second. I am pretty sure even my toaster can handle that. I've been fireballed, HN'd, reddited, etc. All on my little 256MB Linode instance (now 1024). It has never been anything but zippy.

  Currently - nothing that needs scaling for my personal projects. However, as a consultant, it's very possible that a large client may need to scale (dealing with this right now on Azure), so I like to be prepared with options. That said, I know better than to put Dokku in production for a client - at least not until it significantly matures :)

  Hey, I see small sites go down left right and centre here, have you written anywhere about how your 256MB Linode instance stays up?

  When you get a hundred thousand hits in an hour do they usually spread themselves nicely over that hour?
