Hey guys,
I''m running spec_server and using --drb with my specs in Rails, and
I''m seeing virtually no speed up. I''m using
rspec/rspec_on_rails
trunk. Is there something I''m doing wrong?
TIA,
Jeremy

This should save you a good 2-3 seconds every time you run your tests, but there are other speed hits - - The test database needs to be recreated - The classes in app + lib need to be re-loaded And so on... The most obvious speed hit is actually loading data into the database, as well as reading it out, and at least for me, the 2-3 seconds for loading the environment isn''t noticeable either way if I''m actually hitting the database in a model spec. Maybe that would be your case as well? Scott
