02:27 PM Ruby Feature #5653: "I strongly discourage the use of autoload in any standard libraries" (Re: autoload will be dead)

Hi Greg, could you please expand on your argument? Testing may start anywhere but tests should require the files they are testing, so I don't understand why autoload could make things more stable. If the tests are failing because of a mi... rosenfeld (Rodrigo Rosenfeld Rosas)

04:22 PM Ruby Feature #5653: "I strongly discourage the use of autoload in any standard libraries" (Re: autoload will be dead)

07:59 PM Ruby Feature #14718: Use jemalloc by default?

Regarding performance, it's subjective as always. What are your server's specifications? Usually RAM is not cheap, which means people don't usually have plenty of RAM in their servers, which means that lots of RAM usage could mean that a... rosenfeld (Rodrigo Rosenfeld Rosas)
