"Different tools for different jobs" that's exactly the (or better: one) point of the article. no disagreement here, right?

when writing this i forgot that the first line should be not longer than 50 chars or so. that might have been his point. vim's syntax highlighting will warn you when you write too much, so i usually do not really notice the length (afair em

ssh is certainly save. some find it not very comfortable though. (but if you know your way around ssh, you should be fine)

you are part of a vocal minority. there is a reason though for the unixy model of operation with more (well-defined as proxys usually are) smaller components.

see the official haproxy blog about it: [1] and [2]. i think it's a valid comparison. but as i said in my submission of the first of these articles, there are some (minor) mistakes. [1] http://blog.exceliance.fr/2012/07/04/haproxy-and-varn

the pull-request seems to be deleted. for people that want to have a look at the (partly not yet obfuscated) commit will want to search for the sha 2fa93590c7881fab043be7b8b51358894dbc1466

what's the difference in architecture to the other "big" erlang webservers (yaws, misultin and cowboy)?
