It has to do with multiple connections to one database. It has, however, always been possible to have some models living in one database, and others living in others, if that's what you want. Relationships accross databases don't always work perfectly, if you're trying to do fancy things. (Like, pre-loading a relationship accross databases).
For using multiple databases in your app, see: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoUseMultipleDatabases Incidentally, even pre Rails 2.2, I have had success using multiple connections to a single db in different threads, using the mysql gem adapter. Now I wonder if the mysql gem adapter is actually non-blocking though, or if my different threads were still blocking on db access.
