19:58:45 <@ezmobius> tell him we have a merb app running in less then 512Mb of ram serving 8 million dynamic pages/day
19:58:56 <@ezmobius> tell him to try and do that in php and get back to me
19:59:02 <+carpeliam> ;)
19:59:12 <+broken_ladder> i don't think his argument makes sense - because we're actually looking at benchmarks.
19:59:13 <+benburkert> zing!
20:03:46 <@ezmobius> also never trust benchmarks unless you run them yourself
20:03:50 <@ezmobius> even if they are form yehuda
20:03:50 <@ezmobius> or me
20:04:23 <@ezmobius> tell him nothing he said is valid unless he has run benchmarks himself and seen the results
20:10:24 <+topfunky> ezmobius: is 512mb ram, 8Mil pages/day public information? or should it stay in the channel?
20:10:39 <@ezmobius> i cannot say what site but its fine to mention publicly
20:10:46 <+topfunky> cool
20:10:51 <@ezmobius> that was on 10 merb processes using 40Mb each stable
20:11:01 <@ezmobius> on 64bit os
20:11:31 <@ezmobius> broken_ladder tell him merb can serve simple requests in less then 2 milliseconds

11:21:59 <headius> neat
11:22:19 <headius> a simple controller with no session in rails gets around 356 req/s in glassfish gem
11:22:27 <headius> same in merb gets 1400+
