慢资产红宝石1.9.3，macos，rails 3.2

Question

Im have a really weird issue, my assets served really slow in development(10 sec per file), thia happens only in Chrome(17.0.963.79). In Firefox all works just fine. My setup:

• RVM
• Ruby-1.9.3@p125
• Rails 3.2.0
• Mac OS 10.7.3 I have tried switch from webrick to mongrel and thin , using rails-dev-tweaks gem , set cache classes to true and false. All this didnt help, im stuck why it's work slow only in chrome and not in firefox? Also this is fresh setup of OS, maybe im missing something, thanks!

UPD. If this initial request(eg from new tab) all goes smooth. Request take near 2 minute only if im refreshing page. I just can't wrap my head around this issue :(

Answer 1

This seems to have something to do with name resolution.

Using (chrome) and

• localhost:3000/ -- great performance
• 127.0.0.1:3000/ -- great performance
• hostname.local:3000/ - Terrible performance as you describe

This is unfortunate for me, as I have an alias set up in /etc/hosts to point to 127.0.0.1 that affects how the page gets displayed. So no testing of that in chrome.

Answer 2

I had the same problem. Try setting config.assets.debug = false in development.rb . It helped in my case.

Answer 3

We ran into this issue and solved it through using a pow server since it resolves to port 80.

To install pow

curl get.pow.cx | sh

Here is a link to the source for the paranoid.

Hope that helps.
