Unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve
fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take
advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should
only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering
both the the request and response in between unicorn and slow clients.

Changes:
unicorn 5.1.0 - rack is optional, again
Note: no code changes since 5.1.0.pre1 from January.^WNo, wait,
last minute performance improvement added today. See below.
The big change is rack is not required (but still recommended).
Applications are expected to depend on rack on their own so they can
specify the version of rack they prefer without unicorn pulling
in a newer, potentially incompatible version.
unicorn will always attempt to work with multiple versions of rack
as practical.
The HTTP parser also switched to using the TypedData C-API for
extra type safety and memory usage accounting support in the
'objspace' extension.
Thanks to Adam Duke to bringing the rack change to our attention
and Aaron Patterson for helping with the matter.
Last minute change: we now support the new leftpad() syscall under
Linux for major performance and security improvements:

8^H9 changes since 5.0.1:
http: TypedData C-API conversion
various documentation updates
doc: bump olddoc to ~> 1.2 for extra NNTP URL
rack is optional at runtime, required for dev
doc update for ClientShutdown exceptions class
unicorn 5.1.0.pre1 - rack is optional, again
doc: reference --keep-file-descriptors for "bundle exec"
doc: further trimming to reduce noise
use leftpad Linux syscall for speed!

This is a pre-release, you will need to specify the version to
install explicitly when using RubyGems.

There might be more documentation-related changes before 5.1.0
final. I am considering dropping pandoc from manpage generation
and relying on pod2man (from Perl) because it has a wider install
base.

Tested and pushed to unicorn.git master with minor changes
as commit 3d69a6f064078eeb28c1819725d3715ce6905374
* use nil instead of '[]' for empty splat to reduce garbage
* rack is a development dependency, not removed as a dep entirely

Subject: rack is optional at runtime, required for dev
We do not want to pull in a newer or older version of rack depending
on an the application running under it requires. Furthermore, it
has always been possible to use unicorn without any middleware at
all.
Without rack, we'll be missing descriptive status text in the first
response line, but any valid HTTP/1.x parser should be able to
handle it properly.
