ruby hash syntax: %head{ :language => 'german'} & html_escape

can be set as default== interpolates ruby strings- = don't output, e. g. for .eachautomated id generation: %li[obj] <li id=obj.id..... / output html commentsyou can migrate your erb step by step

Title: The Pleasure and Pain of Migrating to jRuby - Steven Bristol

Why switch?performancescalabilityjava api

04.06.2009 RailsWayCon 2009 14

Migration to JRuby

Problems:Gems like ferret, file_column take othersolutionsDeployment with Glassfish

Complicatedmuch slower than with mongrel

RecommendationIf you don‘t need to convert your hole app, just build a small application which exposes a rest interface.

Rails PerformanceTitle: Rails Performance - Michael Koziarskifirst focus to frontend performance

yslow: http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/javascript_include_tag:defaults, :cache => true

My suggestionhttp://github.com/yolk/rucksack/tree/masterIt‘s a packer like asset_package, asset_compressor

sprite your images: http://websitetips.com/articles/css/sprites/

Rails Performance1. What is slow?

heavily used? cache

etagslast updated headerExpires header

browser don't look for a specific time

Frontend Optimazation

Why?e. g. Amazon sells 1% less stuff per 100ms more loading time

Backend: 10 % loading timeFrontend: 90 % loading timeWho?

Fewer RequestsSmaller RequestsSpeed up Requests

Frontend Optimazation

Speed up requestsmost browsers load 2 files per hostMultiple domains for static contentRails: Set 4 asset hosts 8 parallel downloadsconfig.action_controller.asset_host = „http://assets%d.foobar.com“

Content Delivery Networks for static files
