Hey all, Without wanting to claim the hard work of others!! I would love to create an issue that tracks bumping Mail to ~> 2.6 for Rails 5 (e.g re-create a PR like this one <https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15493>). Here's why:
Jeremyevan's PR to use a text-based columnar storage <https://github.com/mime-types/ruby-mime-types/pull/96> in the Mime-types gem has been shown to significantly decrease memory when a user opts in to it <https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems.org/pull/1172> (I've seen 20mb decrease personally). This memory saving behavior is a default in the 3.0 release of Mime-types <https://github.com/mime-types/ruby-mime-types/issues/85#issuecomment-158469362> (as well as a raft of other, really lovely changes <https://github.com/mime-types/ruby-mime-types/commit/026ceeaab6cf6d4ca2e6a06a15affca86023ed4d>). Given that Mail works with Mime-types 3.0 <https://github.com/mikel/mail/commit/d4ffe72b0b2b0c6c8a49130bfe8e792d0542ac0e> and when Mail 2.6.4 has finished brewing <https://github.com/mikel/mail/pull/953#issuecomment-171555920> it'll allow Mime-types 3.0 <https://github.com/mikel/mail/blob/d4ffe72b0b2b0c6c8a49130bfe8e792d0542ac0e/mail.gemspec#L17> It would be great for Rails to nudge users to pick up this behavior too. What are people's views on this? It feels a little audacious of me to modify one line of ActionMailer's gemspec but I'm really keen to see this change happen.
