Talk: An error reporting tool - using Rack Engine and Active Support Instrumentation

Simple, efficient error tracking tool. It’s a Rack-based gem, with small memory footprints & built for performance. It uses Active Support Instrumentation to capture errors & uses threads to process multiple requests simultaneously. It’s not the tool to speak about, it’s the unique way we built it.
