On: Optimizing your CouchDB Calls by 99% (no strings attached)

I'll save everyone the time:

Don't use CouchRest::Database! because it tries to create the DB each time. (Use CouchRest::Database instead)

Don't let multi_json pick the json library! Pick jsonx yourself before couchrest runs.

Don't use HTTPS for internal connections.

For the last 3%... He hacked in a binary format into couchrest and couchdb in 10 lines of code.

Thank you. I'm too ADD for videos, and besides, don't know of an easy way to import them into iTunes as a podcast-style video (one that won't restart from the beginning if I stop it halfway through.)

Is that a bug or a feature? ;)
