This is designed to allow moving all javascript, CSS, and image files to a separate asset host. + ++consider_all_requests_local+ is generally set to +true+ during development and +false+ during production; if it is set to +true+, then any error will cause detailed debugging information to be dumped in the HTTP response. For finer-grained control, set this to +false+ and implement +local_request?+ to specify which requests should provide debugging information on errors. + ++allow_concurrency+ should be set to +true+ to allow concurrent (threadsafe) action processing.
