Real Lessons for Rails Deployment
checklist with ample explanation of how to go live with a production instance of your rails project!

Don't even consider running your Rails app in CGI mode. Even in production mode. That crisp feel won't be there. You're app will feel slow. Even worse, it will be slow. Just skip that part. You might as well delete dispatch.cgi out of your Rails directory and not even futz with it.

It for sure isn't usable for a production site but it works very nicely for development. I keep Apache running with a symbolic link in my root directory. Simply point the link at which every project I'm working on. It saves me the trouble of always running script/server. Using cgi in this setup eliminates any caching issues so editing files like config/environment.rb don't require an apache restart like fast-cgi would.
