vote_passenger2 += 1

I to would be very happy if dreamhost would support Passenger 2.0.1. And I’m sure dreamhost would be happy to see its customers user fewer resources by switching to merb.

Win – Win

Dallas,

First off, I would just like to thank you guys for working with the Phusion team to get this working. Once you guys decided on this I finally saved up the $500 to host with you guys for 5 years.

So far thing have been so incredibly easy for me. It takes me nothing to get an app to production. I am currently in the process of converting all my domains over.

One quick question/request… I have tinkering around with Merb and Datamapper lot lately. I was wondering if you guys are going to help test Phusion’s Passenger 2.0 release? You know the release with mod_rack support! I would love to jump on this boat with you if possible.

I really think it would be a benefit to Dreamhost, if more people used Merb. Its just a more efficient framework, and will save valuable resources in a shared hosting environment.

Please let me know, or at least direct me in the right place to stay up-to-date and informed for this process.

Thanks
taelor

Once we get mod_rack I’ll be a double-happy camper.

I have tried running under Passenger for a few days but have found that sometimes my website suddenly becomes totally unresponsive. Looking at the top of my server i see a rapidly growing list of apache2- processes and the only way to fix it has been to reboot the server.

Seems like i am going to revert to fcgi until these issues are fixed.

I’ve enabled Passenger and Fast CGI on my website and I have major problems with the load time of it. Most of the time, it takes from 20-30 seconds (!) for the site to load after it’s been idle. It runs *okay* after that, but I don’t know for how long before rails goes idle again.

Help!

I’m running Radiant CMS.

@Sam Kong: We have not yet fine-tuned the Passenger settings for DreamHost PS servers. We’ll be making some adjustments there very soon. Please feel free to contact our support team to provide more information about your particular situation.

@Sam Kong: Please refer to the ‘RailsPoolIdleTime’ configuration option in the manual.

Yesterday, my shared hosting was upgraded to PS.

The first page of mod_rails on PS takes 10 seconds to load.
It was only 3 seconds on shared host.
Is it because I have only 150MB RAM?

I also wonder why the mod_rails process is killed on PS as it is on shared host.
If I visit the rails site after hours idle, it takes 10 seconds to load.

I am seriously considering to return to shared hosting.
