Hello, could I please get some more information on running multiple web server processes?  I'd like to set up our local installation on a web server farm.  I'm currently using SGE for all the heavy lifting, but am wary of having a single server on the front end.  Any guidance would be appreciated.  I'm currently using MySql for the db but am not adverse to switching to PostgreSQL if there was a reason to do so.
And anything you'd like to share from your experience regarding hardware selection would be appreciated as well; I'm currently thinking of ordering several "inexpensive" servers.  Have you noticed an "optimal" number of web servers, before traffic jams at the db server start to affect performance?
Thanks,
