Thanks! No problems, yet. Just notice high memory usage but not a busty forum. I’m just rather used to thinking proactively and checking what resources were in use most. This is just on a 3GB VPS with 6 cores @ 3.5 GHz. Not slow, really fast, just can see memory usage becoming a future problem and curious about what I can tweak.

Will do some more reading up on general ruby rails app and optimization. thanks again.
