From 6c1e66a3f3e9b15305f965f52fd8c35fbd8f8d5b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Wong Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2010 08:50:37 +0000 Subject: unicorn 0.990.0 - inching towards 1.0 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Thanks to Augusto Becciu for finding a bug in the HTTP parser that caused a TypeError (and 500) when a rare client set the "Version:" header which conflicts with the HTTP_VERSION header we parse in the first line of the request[1]. Horizontal tabs are now allowed as leading whitespace in header values as according to RFC 2616 as pointed out by Iñaki Baz Castillo[2]. Taking a hint from Rack 1.1, the "logger" configuration parameter no longer requires a "close" method. This means some more Logger replacements may be used. There's a new, optional, Unicorn (and maybe Passenger)-only middleware, Unicorn::OobGC[2] that runs GC outside of the normal request/response cycle to help out memory-hungry applications. Thanks to Luke Melia for being brave enough to test and report back on my big_app_gc.rb monkey patch[3] which lead up to this. Rails 3 (beta) support: Using "unicorn" is still recommended as Rails 3 comes with a config.ru, but "unicorn_rails" is cleaned up a bit and *should* work as well as "unicorn" out-of-the-box. Feedback is much appreciated. Rubinius updates: USR2 binary upgrades are broken due to {TCPServer,UNIXServer}.for_fd[5][6] being broken (differently). Repeatedly hitting the server with signals in a tight loop is unusual and not recommended[7]. There are some workarounds and general code cleanups for other issues[8], as well but things should generally work unless you need USR2 upgrades. Feedback and reports would be greatly appreciated as usual. MRI support: All tests (except old Rails) run and pass under 1.9.2-preview3. 1.8.7 and 1.9.1 work well as usual and will continue to be supported indefinitely. Lets hope this is the last release before 1.0. Please report any issues on the mailing list[9] or email us privately[a]. Don't send HTML mail.
