Irrational Exuberance

You are writing a comment about Dreamier Dream Server with Nginx, here is a quick summary:

Upon posting my first dream server setup, it became apparent that it was less dreamy than I had thought. This article is a reworking of the earlier post, but using nginx as a frontend to an Apache2 backend. Rather than... Apache2 as a frontend to Lighttpd. It has also been pared down a bit, removing the security topics (it didn't cover them well anyway). And its more concise, as in its very much unlike this description.

Actually, I've thought about it a number of times, but I would probably want to rebuild the server up from the ground, which would involve temporarily buying a second slice from SliceHost, then setting it up, then saving an image, and then loading that image onto the first server, and then releasing the first server...

I just haven't wanted to deal with all of that quite yet. :) I'm glad to hear that its working well with your setup though. My impression is that mod_python has the potential to really outclass other services, but only at extremely high usage levels and with more substantial hardware than I have available.
