I found that my Sinatra application was so freaking slow, only happens on VMWare image on i3, i don't know why, it doesn't happened on same VMWare image on AMD APU, the line that causes the slowness is:
DataMapper.setup(:default, 'postgres://myuser:mypassword@127.0.0.1/mydbname')
it tooks almost 40-45 seconds to run that line wnen on VMWare image on i3, and i don't know why, is there any way to overcome this? this happens on Pry/IRB, on Ruby and JRuby.
It doesn't happened when using active_record or psql command line:
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection( adapter: 'postgresql', host: '127.0.0.1', database: 'mydbname', username: 'mypassword', password: 'mypassword', port: 5432 )
