Subject: Re: rails is awesome

I just installed the beta on my Mac OS X G4 450MHz box, and I'm ecstatic.

My page loads during development went from 8-10 seconds to mostly < 1 
seconds.

Singe page loads, rough estimates:
0.8.5 rails Webrick, no caching: 8-10 seconds
0.8.5 rails Webrick, -c (not usable for development before): 4-5 seconds
Beta rails, webbrick, -c (caching): < 1 second

Cool. Now I can use my Mac for rails development!

Thanks,
Nick
