This is just a suggestion, but you might look into separating this import out to a separate "daemon" process. Maybe just a simple Rack application or possibly use Rails Metal. The goal, of course, being to offload this "heavy" task as to not interfere with normal request processing in your main Rails application. I also think I would try to skip ActiveRecord altogether for this task. Unless you gain significant benefit by going through ActiveRecord. Just some things to consider. Good luck and welcome to the Rails community. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
