I uploaded my latest project to http://Textdrive.com the other night and at first I was disappointed with the response speed.  Then I remembered I was using cgi instead of fcgi.  I made the config change and the speed blew me away.  I’m used to ASP.NET application speed and the usual compile and load time each page normally takes.  Also with WEBrick I was used to a slower response time.  All I can say is that the UI was nice and zippy and just felt good. 

It’s one of those times when something surpasses your expectations.  Textdrive is a pretty good host and I recommend them.  I’ve had quite a few hosts to this point and I have to say their tech support has been great.  They also support the Ruby on Rails project which is great also. 

So far I’m enjoying life on the rails.
