From: Eric Wong Date: 2012-04-18T07:13:57+09:00 Subject: [ANN] unicorn 4.3.0 - Rack HTTP server for fast clients and Unix Unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering both the the request and response in between \Unicorn and slow clients. * http://unicorn.bogomips.org/ * mongrel-unicorn@rubyforge.org * git://bogomips.org/unicorn.git * http://unicorn.bogomips.org/NEWS.atom.xml Changes: * PATH_INFO (aka REQUEST_PATH) increased to 4096 (from 1024). This allows requests with longer path components and matches the system PATH_MAX value common to GNU/Linux systems for serving filesystem components with long names. * Apps that fork() (but do not exec()) internally for background tasks now indicate the end-of-request immediately after writing the Rack response. Thanks to Hongli Lai, Lawrence Pit, Patrick Wenger and Nuo Yan for their valuable feedback for this release. -- Eric Wong
