I do not know ROR and Mongrel, but as I understand you may try to route slow requests to the dedicated backends:

that's what I thought of too, and you can do that with any proxy ( though i prefer nginx )

i'd be deathly scared of running a loadbalancer that automagically handled slow/fast requests the way you expect. the configuration would be a nightmare, and it would be doing so much logging and profiling of request timings, it might negate the purpose of a load balancer to begin with.
