And for other gems, choose a "vendor everything" strategy - such as the list
given here - http://errtheblog.com/post/2120

Maybe it is me, but I'm not sure this is a problem with rubygems. I
don't feel it is trying to be a works-everywhere type of platform.
These TxD slices you're using have less RAM than most cell phones
these days. No really. It'll be hard for you to run a rails app on
them regardless.

That said, I think you're looking at the problem incorrectly. You're
not supposed to DO anything on those slices. They're too thin to be
practical for much of anything but a single task. In your case, you
should be rsyncing in a rails app directory that includes vendor/
rails and all the gems it would be using frozen in vendor as well
(see rake rails:freeze:gems and other solutions in various blogs).
You should be 100% self-reliant and self-contained. As I understand
it, the latest capistrano can deploy via rsync.
