Sure, but at a few thousand visitors a month that clocks in around one request every 10 minutes or so. I'm not saying they shouldn't use Passenger or another production app server (I use Unicorn fronted by nginx personally), but it'd honestly probably be fine with Webrick. I'm also not saying that Webrick is what they'd want to be on since it doesn't really have any supervision or real smarts.
