This ended up being a big win since to get high performance with Cassandra you either need many clients or a multi-threaded client and JRuby is fully threaded/supports native threads. The downside of being the only person doing it is trying to debug things. I'm not a Java guy by any means so going down this path has added extra complexity and occasional JRuby specific bugs (mostly on the Rails side, not Hector/Cassandra which has been pretty rock solid so far in my testing). I basically wrote my own custom ORM on top of Hector. It's not AR compliant or anything like that and pretty application specific. Mostly it just tries to simplify the Hector API. -- Aaron Turner http://synfin.net/ Twitter: @synfinatic http://tcpreplay.synfin.net/ - Pcap editing and replay tools for Unix & Windows Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin "carpe diem quam minimum credula postero"
