Important: Nginx + Haproxy + Mongrel Question

[Asif Ali]

Dave,
Each of those servers are 16G RAM, Quad Core, Dual Processor Machines by
Dell. So - the memory shouldn't really be a problem.

Although someone did mention that *ip_conntrack* module might be a problem.

I am not sure what the issue is and not able to understand  - why haproxy is
unable to route requests.

Can you please tell me if there could be some other issue?

regards

Asif
