Re: site's been down

we use a few trac instances on a small slicehost virtual slice with  
only 256 megs of ram, running from mod_python using the prefork  
MPM.    We keep the spare forks way down (to like, 2) and set  
maxrequestsperchild to something modest so that leaks dont grow....one  
trac instance talks to PG, the other talks to sqlite.    Its been  
running solid as a rock for many months with very fast performance.
