Yeah, PassengerMaxPoolSize is a bit confusing - they say it's for tuning 
memory usage, but then say it is the max # of worker Rails processes 
it'll spawn. I don't care if you've got 12TB of ram, if you're only 
running a single core you don't want to set it very high.

Not necessarily. But load average isn't exactly a great performance 
metric. BTW, what's the load average getting up to? You've got 8 cores, 
so something between 10-16 is probably fine, no?
