Alternative to HAProxy + Nginx

[Ezra Zygmuntowicz]

	I haven't seen any additional latencies, in fact i;ve seen decreased  
latencies. One thing to keep in mind is that the maxxconss is *per  
nginx worker*  so if you have maxxconss=1 and 4 nginx workers you will  
end up with 4 conns to each mongrel.

	I suggest starting with one or 2 nginx workers and maxxconns=1.

Cheers-
-Ezra
