Thanks for reminding me about Torquebox. Saw it a long time ago but just went through the features again. The Hobo app that I built (still in beta) is for video processing. It has queues, scheduled tasks (through a rake continuosly runs), websockets through faye for client notification. When they release 2.0 torquebox will have the websocket client and i could replace it all with a single stack, nice.
But I start amazon instances and then use my rails environment with a rails task to pull jobs off the queue to start processing via the command line, so not sure if torquebox would work. I don't want my long running tasks to run on the web servers. I worked on a large rails project and they really needed something like Torquebox with clustering and session affinity. They were really struggling with clustering and threads and Ruby performance. They had a standard web app though.
