title: Ruby On Rails Master-Slave Postrgres Databases
body: <p>I am currently setting up a master-slave app using Ruby on Rails that needs to have a Master-Slave backend.  I'm currently looking at using <a href="http://www.slony.info/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Slony</a> for the replication component, and <a href="http://github.com/technoweenie/masochism" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Masochism</a> for handling the read/write connections to the different DBs.</p>
  
  <p>This is my first time setting up master-slave DBs with Ruby on Rails, and these are the two options I've seen come up the most.  Have you worked with a better plugin for this situation in the past?  The limit to the number of slaves in Slony isn't an issue for the situation, I should realistically only need one or two.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
