Hi all,  
I’ve developed portal using InstantRails, that comes with Apache and  
MySQl.  
I’ve configured Apache with SCGI module. So my portal is running. My  
problem is, it is taking very high resources while accessing every page.  
ruby.exe utilizes 100% CPU usage while accessing every page. It slows  
down my system and so the performance. I am unable to find loop-hole in  
system.  
Please help me out.

Thanks,

---

You must be using an older version if Instant Rails. SCGI has been  
deprecated and is no longer being developed or supported. The  
replacement is to use Mongrel. I suggest upgrading to the latest  
version of Instant Rails.
