1 # Sample verbose configuration file for Unicorn (not Rack)
3 # This configuration file documents many features of Unicorn
4 # that may not be needed for some applications. See
5 # http://unicorn.bogomips.org/examples/unicorn.conf.minimal.rb
6 # for a much simpler configuration file.
8 # See http://unicorn.bogomips.org/Unicorn/Configurator.html for complete
11 # Use at least one worker per core if you're on a dedicated server,
12 # more will usually help for _short_ waits on databases/caches.
15 # Since Unicorn is never exposed to outside clients, it does not need to
16 # run on the standard HTTP port (80), there is no reason to start Unicorn
17 # as root unless it's from system init scripts.
18 # If running the master process as root and the workers as an unprivileged
19 # user, do this to switch euid/egid in the workers (also chowns logs):
20 # user "unprivileged_user", "unprivileged_group"
22 # Help ensure your application will always spawn in the symlinked
23 # "current" directory that Capistrano sets up.
24 working_directory "/path/to/app/current" # available in 0.94.0+
26 # listen on both a Unix domain socket and a TCP port,
27 # we use a shorter backlog for quicker failover when busy

31 # nuke workers after 30 seconds instead of 60 seconds (the default)
34 # feel free to point this anywhere accessible on the filesystem
35 pid "/path/to/app/shared/pids/unicorn.pid"
37 # By default, the Unicorn logger will write to stderr.
38 # Additionally, ome applications/frameworks log to stderr or stdout,
39 # so prevent them from going to /dev/null when daemonized here:

49 # Enable this flag to have unicorn test client connections by writing the
50 # beginning of the HTTP headers before calling the application. This
51 # prevents calling the application for connections that have disconnected
52 # while queued. This is only guaranteed to detect clients on the same

66 # Occasionally, it may be necessary to run non-idempotent code in the

74 # The following is only recommended for memory/DB-constrained

76 # twice as many worker_processes as you have configured.
78 # # This allows a new master process to incrementally
79 # # phase out the old master process with SIGTTOU to avoid a
80 # # thundering herd (especially in the "preload_app false" case)
81 # # when doing a transparent upgrade. The last worker spawned
82 # # will then kill off the old master process with a SIGQUIT.

92 # Throttle the master from forking too quickly by sleeping. Due
93 # to the implementation of standard Unix signal handlers, this
94 # helps (but does not completely) prevent identical, repeated signals
95 # from being lost when the receiving process is busy.
