pitchfork VS Puma

Depends what you are after and what you are constrained by.

Some people might be struggling with memory usage and may not see it as worth it, but for others who may have some extra RAM sitting around, it might come as a free perf increase.

As for memory usage, proper use of CoW can reduce it dramatically: https://github.com/Shopify/pitchfork/blob/master/benchmark/R...

Reforking yes, all explained here

As we use Puma as our webserver for our rails application, I quickly went to Puma's config file which typically resides in config/puma.rb. The config was set as

They do! It's in the first section of the readme on the repo:

Start with service with systemd

That doesn't mean one excludes the other. Gems like Puma use the instance_eval method for their configuration file.

Anyway I did it: https://github.com/puma/puma/issues/3003 It's quite more complicated: https://github.com/puma/puma/issues/2999 A fix is in progress: https://github.com/puma/puma/pull/3002
