[ANN] Thin 0.5.4 Flying Mustard release
Marc-André Cournoyer
Version 0.5.4 (codename Flying Mustard) of the fastest Ruby server is
out!
http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/
== What's new?
Bug fix in daemon mode and speed boost for all!
* No longer read the full body, use direct streaming when sending
response.
See: Response#each
As a result, the Content-Length can not be calculated anymore.
You have to set this in your adapter. All frameworks do it anyway.
It improves memory usage and boost speed for low concurrency.
Thanks to Kent Sibilev and Ezra for their help on that one.
* Add 'Server' response header
* Fix --user and --group option not changing daemon process privileges
== Get it!
sudo gem install thin
Might take some time for the gem mirrors to be updated, try adding
--source http://code.macournoyer.com to the command if it doesn't work
If you installed a previous alpha version (if you have 0.5.4 already
installed)
uninstall it before: sudo gem uninstall thin
WARNING:
Thin is still alpha software, if you use it on your server you
understand the
risks that are involved.
