Why Rails + mongrel_cluster + load balancing doesn''t work for us and the beginning of a solution
...can really be considered production ready. But it does work for us, and does produce a significant performance improvement.

Configuring Mongrel logging
...Specifically, I''d like to get it to output to syslog. Our Rails apps already do this (via SyslogLogger) - is there any way to persuade Mongrel to do the same?

A mock which extends rather than replaces a class?
While running tests, we would like to instrument some of the classes under test. We still want the classes to do exactly what they currently do, but we would like them to do more when running in the test environment. Clearly we can (and currently do) just extend the objects "on the fly" where necessary, but this is a bit messy - we''d like some centralised way to always

Design flaw? - num_processors, accept/close
Rails instances themselves are almost always single-threaded, whereas Mongrel, and it''s acceptor, are multithreaded. In a situation with long-running Rails pages this presents a problem for mod_proxy_balancer. If num_processors is greater than 1 ( default: 950 ), then Mongrel will gladly accept incoming requests and queue them if its rails instance is currently busy. So even

Recommentation: Sessions and PStore
Morning Folks, As most of you know there were a few people who had the following three bugs: * CLOSE_WAIT: Lots of sockets in CLOSE_WAIT state. * 99% CPU: Mongrel''s getting "stuck" pegged at 99% CPU. * LEAK: Memory leak. I''ve successfully fixed these bugs or attributed them to one main cause: pstore. First, the memory leak was because of a bug in how the GC in Ruby

Idiom question - assertions which aren''t in tests
All, Although I''ve been keeping an eye on Ruby for several years now, I don''t have a huge amount of experience with it. So please forgive me if I''m missing something obvious. I''m in the process of writing my first really "serious" Rails app and would appreciate your advice. I am wondering if there is a standard idiom for including assertions in

Documentation for mocks?
Is there any documentation about how mock objects work in RoR, specifically exactly how one should use the test/mocks directory. Is it just me being incompetent searching for it, or hasn''t this been documented yet? Thanks in advance for your help! paul.butcher->msgCount++ Snetterton, Castle Combe, Cadwell Park...

What are controller modules *for*?
I am aware that controllers can be placed in modules: ruby script/generate controller modulename/controllername But what does this buy me? Is it just a way of ensuring that my source code is nicely arranged, or can I use the fact that a set of controllers are all within a particular model to implement functionality common to all of those controllers? Why am I asking? The app
