Issue #5480 has been updated by Hal Brodigan. For those that absolutely need to use GServer, it's also available on rubygems. * https://rubygems.org/gems/gserver * https://rubygems.org/gems/rubysl-gserver However, GServer isn't being maintained, so users should migrate to an alternative or write their own threaded TCP server as needed. ---------------------------------------- Feature #5480: remove GServer from stdlib https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/5480#change-52436 * Author: Konstantin Haase * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Hiroshi SHIBATA ---------------------------------------- =begin I propose removing the gserver library from Ruby's stdlib. People should not use it for the following reasons: * It has no tests at all. * It does something completely different than it claims to do (the docs say it manages a thread pool, while in reality it creates a new thread for every incoming connection). * It is not maintained. For instance, Net::HTTPServer (https://github.com/postmodern/net-http-server) uses GServer for concurrency. Removing GServer and just serving one request at a time improves performance drastically. =end -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
