Good morning, The tuning page says worker_processes should be at least the number of CPU cores on a dedicated server. In the case of hyper-threading, should this be the number of cores or the number of threads? For example the Intel Core i7-2600 Quadcore[1] has 4 cores and 8 threads. Would I start my worker_processes at 4 or 8? Finally, would the same apply to Nginx worker processes? Many

Hi folks. Using mongrel_rails and the mongrel_cluster capistrano recipes, I often encounter a situation where some of the mongrel processes don''t die in time to be restarted. The output of capistrano will tell me something like "mongrel on port 8001 is already up", but that''s only because capistrano/mongrel_rails failed to take it down in the first place. The solution

Hi all, I can't seem to make assert_select work for the more complex cases for me. Here's a sample: # View <%= link_to_remote 'Add new', :url => new_phone_url, :submit => 'phones_head' %> # Generated code: <a href="#" onclick="new Ajax.Request('http://test.host/admin/parties/phone/new', {asynchronous:true, evalScripts:true,

I cannot find any good example of a unicorn upstart task that works properly for the following: * Upstart will restart if unicorn dies * Can send USR2 signal to unicorn to do a no downtime deploys * Able to stop upstart job, even after a deploy I have tried the following: expect fork respawn setuid www-data chdir /var/www/app/current exec bundle exec unicorn_rails -E production -c

Hi all, Forgive me if this has been asked before, but is there a reason mongrel_rails cluster::restart stops all ports and then restarts them again? Wouldn''t it be better to restart each port one-by-one in series so that upstream proxy servers can fail over while the restart is occurring, or am I missing something? Thanks, eden

I''m working on an app that uses info from a government database. For a variety of reasons (not the least of which is that their database is in MS Access), I can''t simply write a wrapper around the legacy database. Instead, we''re looking to have an "import" script in the Rails environment (it''s fine if it''s run from the server and through the

Hello Mongrel Users, I''m writing a web server called Ebb. It''s written in C, makes use of the Mongrel HTTP parser, and uses libev its event loop. The goal is to be small, fast, and language independent server that can host web frameworks. I have written a small Ruby binding which provides a Rack handler - this will allow Ebb to host Rails, Merb, and other Ruby frameworks. In the

Hello, I am using Mechanize to post a form to a website. When I do this by hand in my browser the response takes about 35s to come back (it''s a long page full of tables and graphics). When I do this with Mechanize, the server starts to respond and then appears to hang. The obvious conclusion is that my code is wrong but I am reasonably sure that I haven''t altered it
