The concept seems nice and even like something that would be useful for me, but given my past experience with Ruby-based web apps, I have serious doubts my old Athlon XP server box could do a particularly good job of running it... is there any similar project written in a more performant language?
- ghayes 11y agoThe actual computational work this app is going to be doing is rather small (waiting on IO). I would be more concerned about wasting memory leaving this running all the time.
- 4bpp 11y agoI remember seeing Ruby on Rails constantly burning something like 10% CPU even when it was ostensibly only waiting on the machine (though this might be an issue that has been fixed since, I am not particularly optimistic given the day and age), and anyhow, even in the RAM department, I only have 512MB to work with (of which most is in use most of the time anyway).
- vectorjohn 11y ago"most is in use most of the time" I don't know how you measured that, but Linux will use all of your memory all of the time with various caches.
- zenlikethat 11y agoThis would be a really fantastic program to have running in Go. Deployment is drop-dead simple and usage on resources is very light.
