- cmelbye 14y agoOf course, it's trivial to write request methods that bypass the rack middleware in Rails.
- julian37 14y agoI didn't mean to imply that NodeJS isn't the best fit for the problem at hand. I was just trying to clarify that it doesn't take an asynchronous framework like Node to keep processing a request after the connection is closed.
- mike-cardwell 14y agoYeah, even with a simple Perl CGI, all you have to do is close STDOUT if you want the HTTP response to end, but continue processing the request.
