Off the top of my pointy little head, it seems that each one, if it's a reasonably small app, as I'd expect most free ones to be, should be negligible cost... but since so many people use Heroku for free, it's likely to add up to something significant. Wouldn't be surprised if Heroku starts forbidding it. However, there's no way they can really detect what's a "just keep the app live" ping. Maybe they'll just ask us nicely not to do it. For paid ones, which are likely to be larger, maybe there would be some cost... but then that's the customer's decision. -Dave -- Dave Aronson: Available Cleared Ruby on Rails Freelancer (NoVa/DC/Remote) -- see www.DaveAronson.com, and blogs at www.Codosaur.us, www.Dare2XL.com, www.RecruitingRants.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
