Here is an email from Marc-André, author of Thin, apparently the fastest Ruby server out there.
-Matt --------- Hey all, Version 0.6.2 (codename Rambo) of the fastest Ruby server is out! http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/ == What's new? Important bug fixes for 0.6.1 Cheesecake, please update! A couple people reported memory & cpu spikes and hangs during file upload, this release should take care of those issues. * Server now let current connections finish before stopping, fixes #18 * Fix uploading hanging bug when body is moved to a tempfile, also delete the tempfile properly upon completion, fixes #25 * 'thin restart' now sends HUP signals rather then stopping & starting, closes #17 * HUP signal now launches a new process with the same options. * Add PID and more info from the last request to the Stats adapter mostly taken from Rack::ShowException. * pid and log files in cluster are no longer required to be relative to the app directory (chdir option), fixes #24 * Revert to using #each when building response headers under Ruby 1.8, solves an issue w/ Camping adapter, fixes #22 * Restructure thin script options in 3 sections: server, daemon and cluster * Add --only (-o) option to control only one server of a cluster. * Stylize stats page and make the url configurable from the thin script. * Raise error if attempting to use unix sockets on windows. * Add example config files for http://www.tildeslash.com/monit usage. Include the example file using include /path/to/thin/monit/file in your monitrc file. The group settings let you do this to manage your clusters: sudo monit -g blog restart all There are examples of thin listening on sockets and thin listening on unix sockets. == Get it! sudo gem install thin Or using my mirror: sudo gem install thin --source http://code.macournoyer.com WARNING: Thin is still alpha software, if you use it on your server you understand the risks that are involved. == Contribute If you're using Thin, let me know and I'll put your site on http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/users/ Thin is driven by an active community of passionate coders and benchmarkers. Please join us, contribute or share some ideas in Thin Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/thin-ruby/topics Also on IRC: #thin on freenode Thanks to all the people who contributed to Thin, EventMachine, Rack and Mongrel.
