Hey all,

Thanks for listening to my long winded rant last night.

I've written a blog post, and embedded the slides from the talk at http://jrb.tumblr.com/post/30570014929/scaling-rails-at-melbourne-roro

Hopefully by throwing more words at the problem I will have made my point clearer :)

Cheers,
jb

Any chance of getting some copies of slides, stats, etc from last night's talks?
Love throwing big numbers at people.
