Well on my Dual Core MacMini running Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 2.3.2 going from "ruby script/console" to getting the prompt takes around 9 seconds.
This delay seems to be manifest across all the rails tasks. "rake test" seems to take an age to get running, between 3 to 5 seconds before it starts to event set up the test. In production this is not a problem as the application very rarely has to restart, but it is a bit of a pig for testing. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
