According to the Heroku documentation at http://docs.heroku.com/bundler
you can use this config var setting:

heroku config:add BUNDLE_WITHOUT="development test"

It will exclude the

Hi all,

I'm implementing a simple photo upload test app that uses paperclip
2.3.5 for the upload, S3 for storage, and delayed_job + ImageMagick
for photo resizing.

It works fine on my local

Actually solved it.

It turns out it was a red herring: the S3 error is actually just a
transient issue caused by the DJ worker being on a different host.
The real issue is that I had the

I'd be curious to find out what the actual uptime percentage is, and what it
would cost you to maintain that on a different platform with comparable
services.  :)

As much as it sucks when your site goes down, Heroku is doing a better job
taming EC2 than I was.

I've had my stuff on EC2 for some time and was ready to bail after a lot of
frustration, but

My guess: after you "bundle install" locally, you're not checking in the
Gemfile.lock that results.  So, when you deploy, it sees a mismatch between
Gemfile and Gemfile.lock, and tries to generate a

Delayed::Job is the recommended way to do it, and it may be the only way.
 Thankfully, it works just fine, and you can have say over how the jobs
work, since it's code.

Hi Wes,

Two aspects to this:

   1. There is a 30s hard timeout on any socket connection, so keeping a
   socket open for long-polling is impossible at the moment.  I heard through

to specify ENV['MEMCACHE_SERVERS'].
