well, I think it is unclear exactly how Quadcore distributes, on the one hand, in Wikipedia, it is defined as Hyperthreading, with the explanation that there are several virtual processors (which would satisfy my requirements) but at the same time, wikipedia defines Hyperthreading as SMT (simultaneous Multithreading) and if you follow that link, SMT is described as supporting several parallel THREADS (implying that all within the same process). In case of the latter, I guess a Quadcore setup with out of the box rails wouldn't really help. You suggest BTW apache/nginx, which I never used before, any ideas on how mongrail behaves under load? thanks Kuros -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
