  <body>Redid the old slice this a.m., this time with Rails on Passenger and the lightweight web server [Nginx](http://nginx.net/). It could absolutely not have been simpler.

Have to hand it to the Phusion guys: Passenger just keeps getting better and better.

Why did I decide to move from Apache to Nginx? We're thinking of moving to an Nginx stack at work, so I figured I'd give it a whirl to see if there are any obvious problems. None so far. And a quick ab benchmarking shows the old blog is purring along faster than before.

Plus, it has a cool-as-hell logo:

More to come.</body>
