A lot of this guys rant doesn't read too well - not being a big fan of foul language - although I got his point, but one thing I noticed that sort of stood out below..

I believe, if I could point at one thing it’s the following statement on 2007-01-20 to me by David H. creator of Rails:
(15:11:12) DHH: before fastthread we had ~400 restarts/day(15:11:22) DHH: now we have perhaps 10(15:11:29) Zed S.: oh nice(15:11:33) Zed S.: and that's still fastcgi right?​
Notice how it took me a few seconds to reply. This one single statement basically means that we all got duped. The main Rails application that*DHH*created required restarting ~400 times/day. That’s a production application that can’t stay up for more than 4 minutes on average.







Every 4 minutes? WTF?!?!

I know people complain that Rails can't scale, but that is pretty painful. *Mind you, at least now they only have to restart 10 times a day.
