Recent updates on Tosca

Added by Michel Loiseleur 601 days ago

In the last commits on Tosca source code, there are :
  1. Dynamic workflow (#5): it's now possible to change it with a simple browser
  2. An optional LDAP authentication
  3. Multiple database support (#17), Tosca will be tested with Postgres, Sqlite & MySQL.
  4. A new subscription system "ala Launchpad" (#59). In short, it's possible to receive email notifications only for a subset of specific issues : the ones where the agent has an interest. It can be by contract, by software or for a specific issue. Of course, it's not possible to have an issue without any subscription from the agent side.
  5. Various code cleanup (#61) (#24) (#16)
We would like to thank
  • Thomas Chemineau for its work on LDAP
  • Philip Rhoades for its various tests/comments on multiple database support

Tosca is running on mod_passenger & Ruby Enterprise Edition

Added by Rémy-Christophe Schermesser 752 days ago

After some work on Tosca, it is (at last) compatible with mod_passenger.

We have done some bench to compare Mongrel/Ruby1.8, mod_passenger/Ruby1.8 and mod_passenger/RubyEnterpriseEdition :

The bench was a standard apache test :

/usr/sbin/ab -C '_session_id=my_session_id'-c 100 -n 1000 http://tosca/welcome/admin
Time taken for tests Requests per second
Mongrel & Ruby 1.8 75.994 seconds 13.16 seconds
mod_passenger & Ruby 1.8 51.909 seconds 19.26 seconds
mod_passenger & Ruby Enterprise Edition 27.995 seconds 35.72 seconds

The conclusion is simple : install mod_passenger & Ruby Enterprise Edition !

ps : This Redmine is now on mod_passenger & Ruby Enterprise Edition ;)
