FAQ

Q: Why use Sequel instead of ActiveRecord?

A: When initialize an ORM object, ActiveRecord is 3 times slower than Sequel, and we just need the basic operations, including read, write, enumerate, etc. See more details in Quick dive into Ruby ORM object initialization .

Q: Why do you recommend using multiple collections to store logs rather than a single collection, or a capped collection?

A: MongoDB can effectively reuse space freed by removing entire collections without leading to data fragmentation, see details at http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/use-cases/storing-log-data/#multiple-collections-single-database
