So basically, Rails 4 is more efficient than Rails 3 in terms of object allocations and GC time, but Rails 2.3 still takes the prize in this category.

I had the same reaction. I believe using AGPL code within a website requires that the entire website be open sourced as AGPL. For nearly any company or non-AGPL project this is a huge barrier to using your project. Maybe someone with more legal knowledge can weigh in on if my understanding is accurate.

I think the biggest reason is the lack of good safe bike paths and infrastructure most places. As someone (in the US) who bikes nearly every day as my primary form of transportation I'm quick to admit that bike commuting is dangerous. I love it, but it requires constant vigilance and careful attention not to get hit by a car or a door (and I live in Portland which is much more bike friendly than most US cities). Bikers frequently share lanes with fast moving cars and it's very common for bike lanes to end unexpectedly, leaving the cyclist in a dangerous spot.

I'm willing to accept these risks, but for most people it's not worth it. My wife also enjoys biking, but hates to ride on busy streets for fear of ending up on the wrong end of a distracted motorist. This limits her options to weekend pleasure rides on dedicated bike paths.

The trick to getting more people to cycle is to invest heavily in bike path infrastructure so that more people will feel safe using it as a primary form of transportation.

New Relic is looking for developers to work on our world-class application monitoring products. We're looking for good people so feel free to apply even if you don't see the "perfect fit" on http://newrelic.com/about/jobs.

We’re a very fast growing pre-IPO start-up and we care about our culture. We value: * Work/Life Balance * Respect * Engineer Code Ownership * Experimentation Check out http://newrelic.com/about/jobs for more details.

INTERNs ok, no REMOTE, H1B maybe but these are hard to get now.

I work on New Relic's ruby agent, and you're right (hey Justin). In fact we support both methods (i.e. passing a timestamp or a duration). We rely on the front end server (e.g. nginx, apache) to set a timestamp in an HTTP header and forward that to the ruby application. In the case of heroku there is a special header that they pass which describes the queuing duration. Because we're in the ruby application we don't have control over whether this timestamp is accurate but I'm very interested in ideas on how we could do a better job in this situation.

We do provide javascript based browser instrumentation ("Real User Monitoring") which measures request time from the browser's perspective. This might give you a more accurate idea of what real users are experiencing in this case.
