Ruby on Rails on AOLserver?
Any thoughts or ideas on whether Ruby on Rails would work with the nsruby module? --Caveman 10:28, 9 December 2005 (EST)
- What would be the point? Rails already includes a Ruby-based HTTP listener that's closely integrated with Rails. You would get no performance benefit from putting AOLserver in front of Rails, as Rails is all single-threaded so requests get processed in serial, as I understand it. If you wanted to accelerate a Rails app, I'd front it with a load balancing switch and run a bunch of Rails listeners. But, that'd mean Rails couldn't keep in-memory state information unless you want to run the switch in sticky-session mode, which is lame. -- Dossy 07:50, 10 December 2005 (EST)
- Dossy is correct here, as far as I understand.

Ruby on Aolserver?
Yes, but Ruby on Aolserver would absolutely ROCK!
