Adam,
Is it a question of timing, or getting a finalizer to fire at all?
Generally, the garbage collector isn't guaranteed to be called at any
particular time, so getting deterministic finalizer behavior is somewhat
difficult.

There isn't much call in Ruby for finalizers.  Perhaps there's another
way to meet whatever constraints you have?  Should this be sent to the
main Rails or Ruby list(s)?

Best,
Rick
