After grab DC 0.4.0, I noticed very slow performance, each request takes a lot longer than I had expected. Went to google and searched by 'thin slow performance', then few things popping up and stated that the eventmachine EM.epoll may be the one to take the fault. Then I noticed that I am using very old eventmachine gem which is 0.12.10. updated to a beta release eventmachine-1.0.0.beta.4 with the following command,then what a difference!!!, each request is now almost instant. I am using Ubuntu 11.04 on a 64 bit machine. If you also experience similar problems, you may want to try the newer eventmachine. Someone also suggested to disable epoll, but I am not sure if that is a good idea. If you do experience some performance issue, give it a try, you may be surprised.
gem install eventmachine --pre Thanks. Tong Li Emerging Technologies & Standards B062/K317 [email protected]
