The spinner process is running all the time, and because it has loaded
and initialized the whole Rails environment (boot.rb etc.) it uses a lot
of RAM. The same goes for the spawner process. It is started every
#{interval} seconds, and because it loads the Rails environment every
time - this can put a considerable load on a small server. IMO neither
spinner nor spawner do really need the Rails environment, all they do is
to call external scripts.
I deploy apps on a shared hosting server without the spinner, and
everything is fine. I just use the facilities provided by Lighttpd.
I'm doing this at the moment, but I would prefer to be able to restart
Lighttpd and the various FastCGI servers independently.
