It is, but without multi-threading support, so it can handle only one request 
at the same time.

What about considering the following two options:

 * Configure thin as multi-threaded. There is an option --threaded (Call
   the Rack application in threads) which is marked as experimental.
   It's not documented and it will likely fail, but it maybe worth
   trying.

 * Configure proxy to route all IO blocking request (imports etc) to a
   dedicated thin process. All others would be in a different "group".
   This would be more or less temporary solution.
