I am pondering the possibility of encrypting/decrypting some fields in a SQLite backend on-the-fly. The point of the message is not security, I know that''s broken, but whether there''s a technique that provides on-the-fly save/read filters.

I am using mongrel_cluster with mod_proxy_balancer and would like to enable compression (assuming it improves throughtput) and limit file size upload.

There is a dedicated section about eager loading in the docs. A coworker discovered eager loading does not work in polymorphic associations the hard way :-) so I''ve written a patch that documents it: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10610 There are at least a couple of tickets that implement something that would change that though: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/9640

Streaming works with Unicorn + Apache. Both with and without deflating. My understanding is that Unicorn + Apache is not a good combination though because Apache does not buffer, and thus Unicorn has no fast client in front. (I don''t know which is the ultimate technical reason Unicorn puts such an emphasis on fast clients, but will do some research about it.) I have seen in

I''m trying to get the unit testing for a new project to use the wonderful :memory: database specification for SQLite.
