RapGenius is upset about Heroku's routing infrastructure. RapGenius, like many web sites, uses Rails, and Rails is notoriously difficult to operate in a multithreaded environment. Heroku operates at large scale, and made engineering tradeoffs which gave rise to high latencies–latencies with adverse effects on customers. I'd like to explore why Heroku's Bamboo architecture behaves this way, and help readers reason about their own network infrastructure.
