Rails 2.2 is now officially released (as 2.2.2) and we’re really
interested in hearing anyone’s migration stories. There’s a good chance
your project would be widely promoted as examples of how much 2.2 has
improved its concurrency story.
Have you switched? If not, why not?
If it’s working well for you, why? If not, why not?
And anything else you want to add.

http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_emailHow does the new activerecord connection pooling work if you are using ,
say
DBCP on Tomcat for connection pooling. Should you use both or does the
ActiveRecords-JBDC plugin use the servlet container’s JDBC pool ? How
would
database.yml look ?
Thx

When using connections pools available through jndi, you don’t need the
Rails 2.2 pool.
Just set the jndi name for the connection pool you want to use (that is
also
configured in your container), in the database.yml:
production:
adapter: jdbcmysql
jndi: java:comp/env/jdbc/Pool
And don’t forget to set the jndi reference in you web.xml:
jdbc/Pool java​x.sql.DataSource<​/res-type> Cont​ainerWarbler already does it for you (generating the web.xml file with the
required lines):
Warbler::Config.new do |config|
config.webxml.jndi = ‘jdbc/Pool’
end
The last thing is that you must be sure that connections are being
returned
to the pool, at the end of request processing. I believe jruby-rack
isn’t
doing it automatically anymore in the last release (0.9.2), so you will
have
to add an after_filter to your application controller:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
after_filter :close_all_connections
private
def close_all_connections()
ActiveRecord::Base.clear_active_connections!
end
end
Just one little tip: I’ve seen many times people having problems with
DBCP
and dead/timed-out connections. Try using something else (and better)
like
c3p0.

Right. For the rails 2.2 connection pool, you just have to set the max
size:
production:
pool: 20
adapter: jdbcmysql
encoding: utf8
database: mydb
username: root
password:
host: localhost

Thanks Fabio.
Funny you mention it, I am indeed having issues with dead timed out
connection connecting to mysql (tons of those mySqlException , last
connection was seen 0 ms ago errors).
Are all the config parameters you mentioned for JNDI and are not needed
for
the Rails 2.2 pooling ? I didnt realize there was so much to
configuring
JNDI under tomcat. I am not sure what tomcat uses by default.
Appreciate the help.

Steve, in the warble rb file there is a min and max runtime setting.
Just
set them to 1
How do I configure warbler (or whatever) to spin up just one Ruby
interpreter? Or just a few. I’d like to see how much this improves
memory
consumption, the number of concurrent requests that can be handle by one
JVM
instance, make sure there aren’t any lurking thread bugs in Rails or
dependent libraries, etc.
Thanks,
Steve

I can confirm, as I’ve already used it. Just set min = max = 1 and
jruby-rack won’t use the PoolableApplicationFactory (runtime pool).

Yeah, I believe Warbler has smarts in place that if you set min = max =
1 it figures you are doing Rails 2.2. Nick would be able to confirm.

Once we do upgrade, we’ll have some decent historical performance data
to compare it to that for us at least will be exciting.

I’ve been building an app with a message-queue component, running in
Glassfish. I’ve been able to run my messaging code as a Message-driven
Bean with Rails 2.1, but it’s only with 2.2 that I can let messages be
handled in parallel. I need to do some proper measurements of the
speed improvement that gives, but it’s the difference between easily
keeping up with the sender and not in my case.
I wrote a quick note of what I’ve got working here:
http://nodnol.org/blog/chris/entry/a_jruby_rails_message_driven
I think there’s an opportunity for some extra tools to support JRuby
MDBs more easily - while I’ve got this working, I’ve had to write some
Java, an XML config file and use an IDE to build the MDB. I hope to
get chance to try and make it more generic and closer to the Rails
webapp WAR deployment experience.
That said, I’m really happy with this upgrade, and the performance I’m
getting with JRuby!

Hey there all -
So far I am not having good results. Here is my environment:
Windows Server 2003
Java 6 Update 10
Apache 2.2
Tomcat 5.5 (via ProxyPass)
Jruby 1.1.5
Rails 2.2.2
Goldspike
jruby script/server is working fine. This is happening only when I
package
to war and deploy to my server (Perhaps the problem is goldspike since
it is
the one creating the war file?)
Upon starting up Tomcat, memory steadily shoots from 100 megs to 700+
megs.
CPU activity at constant 100%. Tomcats hang on any URL. Feels like
something
is looping, but not sure. Here are some of the error messages I am
seeing:
java.lang.ClassCastException:

Just migrated www.agilenetworks.ro (my pet project business) to JRuby
1.1.5/Rails 2.2/Tomcat6. Seems to work

Cool, thanks for this Chris 
I hope we can keep improving things. And
I agree better “direct” support for MDB and other component types in
“pure Ruby” would be really nice. I know the GlassFish guys are planning
to look at that soon.

Glad to hear it’s working And there’s got to be dozens of geo IP
libraries for Java, which means you could just use them from JRuby too.

Thanks for your reply and information. Sorry, I did not realize
Goldspike
wasn’t being maintained. It was working pretty well for me up until this
rails release.

success) and here is the error message I get:

That’s very strange…I don’t have the code in front of me, but we’ll
have to take a look and see why it’s getting a NullPointerException
there. It’s in the jruby-rack code.
