Subject: Re: rails: webrick & lighttp/fcgi threading model

Ok, so looking into the WEBrick code, it is indeed a non forking server
(meaning only one process is running). Now looking at the
webrick/httpserver.rb::run method it looks like it is also single
threaded. Fine.

As for the rails specific stuff, I tried to follow the rails code, but
I got lost into the action_controller module. The code starts to be a
little hard to follow, especially when you have tons of 'send(method,
*arguments)' all over :-)

Anyway, maybe somebody here knows: how come my .irbrc gets executed for
each new request ? (yeah, yeah, I am going to submit this question on
the rails forum...)
