Thread safe rails 2.2 from new core member
like it says, don't get too delirious, it's 1.8.x's green threads.
- inklesspen 18y agoThank god!
- gaika 18y agoIn jRuby threads are native, so there should be a huge performance boost, has anybody tried it yet?

- scott_s 18y agoNotice that the project is to make it thread safe, not to make it multithreaded.
- gaika 18y agoRails thread unsafety (active record specifically) was the last block on making multi-threaded apps. JRuby, Mongrel, were multithreaded before that. Mongrel has semaphore around main rails call. I assume once you remove it with Rails 2.2 and jRuby it should be multi-threaded. What am I missing?

- smhinsey 18y agoWhat are the implications of this? Any pointers to more substantive conversation on the topic? ("enterprisey check list" doesn't say much...)
