Rails - Feb 2007 - Design and Deployment

Hi guys,

Looking for some advice if possible.. I basically want to create a
free dj mix site, whereby users can upload mixes, rate them, discuss
them etc.. but I have a few (ok, many) questions that I could do with
answering to help me on my way to rails zen!

Firstly is the way I can deploy the application. I would probably be
using Apache 2.2, mod_proxy_balancer and mongrel. Would there be any
way that large file uploads (of around 100mb) would cause problems
with this setup? I''m not au fait with the way that this works in
rails, as I''m still a complete newbie. What about memory filling
issues, buffers etc..

More questions will come (undoubtedly) but I thought I''d start off on
a simple(ish) one first.

Thanks!
Joel

You should seriously consider using merb for large file uploads.

Looks very interesting, I wasn''t even aware smaller frameworks existed
in such a capacity. I will take a look at it.

Thanks!
