Lukas,

Thanks for the reply.

I've not been able to repro the issue on F15 (x86_64) either.  I've 
checked and the key ruby versions are actually the same between our F14 
& F15 installs.  We initially observed this behavior on a demo box 
running F14 and I was able to reproduce it on my F14 config.

I've not tried in production mode, but will give it a try.

thanks,
Brad
