I'm now thinking of persuing the original idea again (with a new implementation) and when researching the latest Ruby and Ruby-on_Rails versions I see Ruby 1.9.2 and a Rails 3.0 beta. I haven'...

How do you folks retrieve all objects in code upfront? I figure you can increase performance if you bundle all the model calls together?
