...um number of 30. But when I start a configuration that requires for example 300 worker executions I can see that the limit of 30 workers is not kept and a number of about 180 worker processes are filling up my process list. I start my workers like this: key = MiddleMan.new_worker(:class => :execution_worker, :args => {...some_args...}) Why do I see so much more than my declared number of 30 workers? Am I wrong somehow? How do I have to understand the behaviour of pool_size? What happens when I have 30 workers working and the 31st, 32nd, ..., 300th request to start a worker comes in? Thanks &a...
