Heroku Admits To Performance Degradation Over The Past 3 Years After Criticism From Rap Genius

Heroku, the popular cloud application platform, may not be as fast today as it was three years ago. Yesterday, Rap Genius' James Somers , posted a widely read blog post, arguing that Heroku had quietly changed the way it distributes tasks from Ruby on Rails apps?across the Amazon EC2 machines it makes available to its users at some point in the last few years without alerting developers of this change. Instead of intelligently routing requests to the next available server, as Heroku did in its early days, Somers argued that it now randomly distributes requests, resulting in increased queuing times. Today, Heroku's general manager Oren Teich admitted that this is indeed the case.
