Hi there, We have to use delayed_job (or some other background-job processor) to run jobs in the background, but we're not allowed to change the boot scripts/boot-levels on the server. This means that the daemon is not guaranteed to remain available if the provider restarts the server (since the daemon would have been started by a capis...
Is it normal for my test suite to take 5 seconds just to launch? Even when running an empty suite it still takes this long. Is it because it's firing up a new instance of rails on each run?

Basically, I have a few delayed_jobs running, and am looking for a plugin that will poll the server for completion of a particular job, th...

I've noticed that if I go to other websites that need flash, I get a yellow bar at the top of my firefox window that offers to "Instal...
