It's been almost two years since the last release of Zed Shaw's SCGI
Rails Runner (0.4.3 in October 2005).  I've been using it in production
since then and have modified it to add some new features and remove some
ones I wasn't using.  Zed has allowed me to take over the project, and
I've just released a new version of it (0.6.0). Here's a summary of the
changes:

* Single-port clustering is back
* scgi_ctrl is fully configurable on the command line
* Clustering and processing are now built into scgi_ctrl
* DRb, Win32, and throttling are no longer supported
* Soft reconfiguration is no longer supported (no SIGUSR1)
* Restarting via SIGHUP is no longer supported (SIGHUP is the same as
SIGINT)
* The only commands available to scgi_ctrl are start and stop

Here's an list of the available options and defaults:

scgi_ctrl [option=value, ...] (start|stop)
 Options:
  -b, --bind          IP address to bind to [127.0.0.1]
  -c, --config        Location of config file [config/scgi.yaml]
  -d, --directory     Working directory [.]
  -e, --environment   Environment (for Rails) [production]
  -f, --fork          Number of listners on each port [1]
  -l, --logfile       Location of log file [log/scgi.log]
  -m, --maxconns      Maximum number of concurrent users [2**30-1]
  -n, --number        Number of ports to bind to [1]
  -p, --port          Starting port to bind to [9999]
  -P, --pidfile       Location of pid file [log/scgi.pid]
  -r, --processor     Type of processor to use [Rails]

To try it out:

  sudo gem install scgi

Enjoy,
Jeremy
