Hi- We just finished our app and I tested for performance with httperf. Our setup is browser -> apache2.2-> mod_poxy balancer-> mongrel cluster -> 3 mongrel servers. I have noticed that the total request per second is is about 7.5. When I increase the no of mongrel to 5, it inches up to 8 req/s. My question is how bad or good this number is? We are on a old dell 2400 machine

Hi, I am from a Java background and pretty new to Ruby and Rails. What I am wondering is how I would shared state accross requests and users without involving IO, i.e. use memory. My current understanding is that for each request a new process ist spawn and therefore it gets its own memory. So no sharing can take place between requests? Do I understand this right? For those who know

Gang- We are getting ready to launch our ROR application; the last item remaining is the deployment platform. For testing, we had used Apache + MOD_FastCGI. I am not that impressed with it; sometimes it has strange effects. For example, when we start the application, for about 5 minutes or so, the app is very unstable and it gets better over time. My questions is .. should I go with (1)

Any suggestion on how to handle the potential performance issue? How can i use a search

In typical Java/J2EE applications, domain model object do not have much logic, they are basically data holders. It seems to be considered a sin to put persistence logic in the domain model objects, instead it should be put a DAO (Data Access Object). I have always thought this seems funny, after all, what seems more natural/object-oreiented?: user.save() or userDao.save(user) In Ruby/Rails,

Does anyone have an idea of the rates being charged by Rails developers (or salaries for FTEs)? I''m curious to see whether rates will become comparable to those paid to more experienced Java/.NET developer types, or if rates will be lowered by the free/open source mentality, and the possible perception that Rails makes Web development "easy." Sometimes rates are more

Hi, I''m very new to Rails and have a general question. What technique would you use to allow users who have a uniform set of data to create very un-uniform websites from that data? One set of data, many different website/output possibilities. It would have to go beyond CSS. I''m assuming there will potentially be some level of scripting involved for each template. The goal is

Hi, normally I am doing all my webprojects with PHP. But now I am planning to use a framework, either Ruby On Rails, or Java in particular J2EE with Java Spring, or Struts Shale. Well, I already tried RoR a few month ago, so I am simply comparing it to the Java alternatives now. My problem is, that maybe using Java for my projects is like using a dredger to grub a small hole :) But on the other

Hi Everyone, I''m working at getting Rails introduced in my company. We''re a J2EE shop. Our deployments make use of thee-tiered architecture, just to be clear, that means that there are essentially three machines involved in dealing out an app: a webserver, an application server, and a database server. As I see it (unless I''ve missed something) Ruby is essentially
