We Made Puma Faster With Sleep Sort

This article details the release of Puma 5, a major update to the Ruby web server. It focuses on new experimental performance features for cluster mode on MRI, such as 'wait_for_less_busy_worker' (using a sleep sort technique to reduce latency), 'fork_worker' for memory reduction, and 'nakayoshi_fork' for garbage collection before forking. The author explains the intended benefits and experimental nature of these changes.
