I am working on and will be publicly showing ActiveRecord some love around the time of the RubyConf*MI [1] in late August. My main focus is getting AR to better handle inserts, updates and merges when working large sets of data. It can improve improve performance by 400% to 600% in preliminary benchmarks. I am coding this in a way so it can be patched to AR easily, and with that in mind

Myself and a coworker ran into an issue that only appears with Lighttpd. It does not happen with Webrick or Apache. Our rails app uses libraries outside the ruby standard library paths, and outside our rails application directory. When trying to add those directories to our load path, it was getting screwed up. Here is my posting of the problem in full and the solution we came up with:

Ok, the link: http://www.mktec.com/dev_www/wxrubydocs/ (try http://www.mktec.com/dev_www/wxruby-docs/ ,it does not work for me, although this is the actual directory, could you email me privately if this does/doesn''t work for you, thx) Updates in this preview of the new docs: - a new RDOC template courtesty of Nick - fixed paragraph jumping and monospace text where it

Ok, my first complete swipe for the new docs (but still with old rdoc default output templates) can be seen at: http://www.mktec.com/dev_www/wxruby-docs/ Most of the classes/methods documentation came out fine, but I still need finetune because some methods don''t get documented at all, like methods in the classes Bitmap and Frame. Once I can get it so all things get documented

My completely empty model (no validation callbacks etc etc) takes an average of 0.05 seconds to create, at least according to Benchmark.realtime{200.times{Message.create(:from => "me@here.com", :message_type => ''email'', :subject => "hello", :body => "goodbye", :sent_at => Time.now)}}/200 That''s a little slower than

Hi. I need to use functions INET_ATON, INET_NTOA for IP address retrieving. Is it possible to make this transparently (without custom SQL for saving, updating and retrieving)?

Hi, I wonder if there is some fonctions which allow an activeRecord to save more than one row at a time??? As I understand, when we create an object from AC::Base, it represents one row of the table. So if I want to save more than one row, I have to create the object one by one and then save them one by one. If I have 10, it is fine, but if I have more than 1000, so it will a lot of time.... So

A concrete example: We''re building a system to organize the information about workshops being held in various conventions. A convention has more than one workshop, and each workshop can be held in more than one convention. Also each workshop has a host, who is specific to a workshop being held in a specific convention. For example, Matz may host an "Introduction to Ruby"
