[Rails] Current threading model of Rails?

Can anyone tell me the current state of Rails and threading? Do you need a bunch of mongrel processes running on a single machine or is it possible to get away with just one that handles concurrent requests? I did a bunch of Google searches and couldn't find a definitive answer on the current request model used by Rails.
