General warning is using any external libraries that require sharing OS level resources (files, sockets, shmem, file locks) should be avoided or very strictly tested and controlled. Additionally, if you *must* use these put them into a separate DRb server and make it the single control point for the resources. Also, try to avoid RMagick processing inside rails. People love their file_column, but RMagick is a fat nasty pig that cripples many sites without warning. The optimal setup is use something like BackgrounDRb or a plain DRb server and use a batch processing method. That's the main warnings right now. -- Zed A.
