My slug is pretty big, about 50 MB, mostly due to gem dependencies. I figure I could shave about 5 MB if I spent an entire day shaving off unused bits. But I doubt this would make any perceivable difference.
I don't really mind the sluggish spin up time. What I do mind is having slug compilation occasionally take 4+ hours instead of the normal 3 minutes. That means I can't show my boss the current state of the app, which is pretty embarrassing and shakes his confidence in hosting the production app with Heroku. I pointed out the slow spinup because there seemed to be a strong connection between that and the slow slug compilation. I recently upped my staging to 2 dynos (1 paid), to see if the problem goes away. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Heroku" group.
