No chance of speeding up the long requests?  That's the best option.

It may make more sense to other people (non-Rubyists) who could inherit
the system to manage the Unicorn master instances separately and use
separate config files.  Otherwise, I suppose your approach is valid
(haven't tried nor seen it myself).

If the long request is blocking on something external (e.g. making an
HTTP request to an OpenID provider), then Rainbows![1] is worth looking
into.
