Question

I need to create an application on heroku, But I am confused in selecting a better stack. For rail3.1 application, which heroku stack is better in terms of caching, speed and assets pipeline ???

Answer 1

From the Heroku docs:

While Rails 3.1 can run on the Bamboo stack without the asset
pipeline, Rails 3.1 runs best on Heroku’s Cedar stack. For new users,
we recommend reading our tutorial for creating a Rails 3.0 app on
Cedar before proceeding further.

It seems the asset pipeline is only supported on the Cedar stack.
