Because the cache is invalidated every few minutes, the wait is annoying, and the CPU is either idle or running 100%. If the load can be spread out more, responsiveness will improve. I have profiled the requests, cut the response time in half, and it is still annoying slow, several seconds. I need a 10x increase and have only found several improvements totaling a 2x increase. Short of changing the underlying engine from Ruby 1.8 to Ruby 1.9 or jRuby or going to a template engine written in a compiled language, I don't see any way to increase the responsiveness short of pre-filling the cache where feasible.
