[LRUG] Rails Application boot times?

[Jon Rowe]

Is that RSpec startup time with your entire suite and loading Rails? If so the fact that its less than your normal boot time says that your test environment is more optimised than your dev and you could look at replicating those settings to reduce your boot time.

Without context it seems high but classic "gem sphagetti" Rails apps do tend to trend towards higher boot time and that is normal (the solution is lots of refactoring so the question is where is your time best spent)

Cheers
Jon
