Why not set backlog on Heroku?

First read this: https://mikecoutermarsh.com/adjusting-pumas-backlog-for-heroku/

Now we're on the same page. Heroku will re-route bounced requests from your dynos but it assumes when this happens that your entire app is saturated. https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/http-routing#dyno-connection-behavior. Each connection gets delayed by 5 seconds, so you're automatically being docked 5 seconds per request.

If you're setting your backlog to a low value (i.e. if you'll ever actually ever hit backlog) then you'll be in for pain. When you get a spike of requests from slashdot/reddit/whatever you're telling your dynos that you would rather they failed then returned slow responses. So this does mean that some requests will be served, but all the others will fail.

If your app ever hits your backlog (no matter what value it is) it is an indicator you don't have enough throughput and you need to scale out to more dynos. If you set this to an arbitrarilly low value, that point comes

Methods of Signing Git Commits on MacOS

Last updated March 13, 2024

This Gist explains how to sign commits using gpg in a step-by-step fashion. Previously, krypt.co was heavily mentioned, but I've only recently learned they were acquired by Akamai and no longer update their previous free products. Those mentions have been removed.

Additionally, 1Password now supports signing Git commits with SSH keys and makes it pretty easy-plus you can easily configure Git Tower to use it for both signing and ssh.

For using a GUI-based GIT tool such as Tower or Github Desktop, follow the steps here for signing your commits with GPG.
