It’s not really scientific, but shows that at least for small sites, mod_rails definitely is a good and easier to setup alternative. I’m planning to do my own benchmarking soon on my shiny, new SUN Ultra 24 Workstation that comes with great Ruby & Rails support out [...]

Published on October 14th, 2007 in OtherI always wanted to dig into Subversion and start using it productively. So I bought myself a book from German publisher Galileo Computing.
