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

Thanks for the confirmation, pushed as the following commit:

commit a6077391bb62d0b13016084b0eea36b987afe8f0
Author: Eric Wong <e@80x24.org>
Date:   Wed May 20 22:15:48 2015 +0000

    process SIGWINCH unless stdin is a TTY
    
    Some process managers such as foreman and daemontools rely on
    unicorn not daemonizing, but we still want to be able to process
    SIGWINCH in that case.
    
    stdout and stderr may be redirected to a pipe (for cronolog or
    similar process), so those are less likely to be attached to a TTY
    than stdin.  This also allows users to process SIGWINCH when running
    inside a regular terminal if they redirect stdin to /dev/null.
