This release finally drops Ruby 1.8 support and requires Ruby 1.9.3
or later. The horrible "Status:" header in our HTTP response is
finally gone, saving at least 16 precious bytes in every single HTTP
response.
Under Ruby 2.1 and later, the monotonic clock is used for timeout
handling for better accuracy.
Several experimental, unused and undocumented features are removed.
There's also tiny, minor performance and memory improvements from
dropping 1.8 compatibility, but probably nothing noticeable on a
typical real-life (bloated) app.
The biggest performance improvement we made was to our website by
switching to olddoc. Depending on connection speed, latency, and
renderer performance, it typically loads two to four times faster.
Finally, for the billionth time: unicorn must never be exposed
to slow clients, as it will never ever use new-fangled things
like non-blocking socket I/O, threads, epoll or kqueue. unicorn
must be used with a fully-buffering reverse proxy such as nginx
for slow clients.
I'll tag 5.0.0 final in a week or so if all goes well

* [ANN] unicorn 4.9.0 - Rack HTTP server for fast clients and *nix

Unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve
fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take
advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should
only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering
both the the request and response in between unicorn and slow clients.

Changes:
unicorn 4.9.0 - TempfileReaper support in Rack 1.6
This release supports the Rack::TempfileReaper middleware found
in rack 1.6 for cleaning up disk space used by temporary files.
We also use Rack::TempfileReaper for cleaning up large temporary
files buffered with TeeInput. Users on rack 1.5 and earlier
will see no changes.
There's also a bunch of documentation/build system improvements.
This is likely to be the last Ruby 1.8-compatible release, unicorn 5.x
will require 1.9.3 or later as well as dropping lots of cruft (the
stupid "Status:" header in responses being the most notable).

This is not anything new, just documenting what has been going
on since the beginning.
There's been a small number of generic networking (or mm) bugs in
the kernel which affect unicorn, but are usually found and fixed
with more popular, non-Ruby servers, first.
Aside from generic performance problems, I don't think there's ever
been a glibc bug which affected unicorn.
