Wowza.  That's a lot.

I have a number of web servers (Node.js/Ruby) running on spaces.litmis.com
and instead of going the route of doing new IPs I do the reverse proxy
approach.  I am trying to imagine advantages/disadvantages of adding more
IP addresses.  For my scenario it's just as easy to do reverse proxy with
each Node.js/Ruby server having its own port on the same IP.  I can see how
RPG-CGI apps would have an easier time with multiple IP addresses.
