thin-proctitle
 
homepage:    http://github.com/grempe/thin-proctitle/tree/master
git repo :   git clone git://github.com/grempe/thin-proctitle.git
 
Concept:
Display as the *NIX process title what each of your Thin servers are doing.
 
The idea for this was shamelessly stolen from:
http://purefiction.net/mongrel_proctitle/
 
You should be able to run 'ps' or 'top' on your *nix like system and see process output for your
Thin servers that looks something like this:
 
thin [10010/2/358]: handling 127.0.0.1: HEAD /feed/calendar/global/91/6de4
|     |     | |     |        |          |
|     |     | |     |        |          The current request (method and path)
|     |     | |     |        The client IP
|     |     | |     What it's doing
|     |     | The number of requests processed during the server's lifetime
|     |     The number of requests currently queued/being processed concurrently
|     The port that Mongrel is serving
The process name
 
 
Usage:
 
  Copy the thin_proctitle.ru file to RAILS_ROOT/config/thin_proctitle.ru
 
  Modify the following variables in this file to fit your setup:
 
    :root => '/your/rails/root/dir'
    :environment => 'production'
 
  Start your Thin server passing in the '--rackup' parameter which should look something like:
 
    'thin start --rackup thin_proctitle.ru'
 
    Tip:
      See http://macournoyer.wordpress.com/2008/02/09/the-flexible-thin-anorexic-gymnast-that-democratized-deployment/
 
  If you are using a Thin .yaml file for configuration you can also specify the rackup command there:
 
    ...
    rackup: config/thin_proctitle.ru
    ...

Thanks to Marc-André Cournoyer (macournoyer) for writing Thin and for providing the sample code behind this.
