The major point Jan brings up when you talk about this is that
eRServer offers a nice failover model.  But then what?  How do you get
back to your production server?  Swapping master/slave to do
maintenance on the master using eRServer is not really something a
mere mortal can do, either.  I paid for a license to use eRServer.  I
wouldn't ever do that again...  It was unable to solve my main problem
with multi-million row tables, but it did work on a small production
database with a few hundred rows just fine (albeit with 200MB+ memory
footprint!)
