mod_ruby is an embedded Ruby interpreter of the Apache web server to allow Ruby code to execute natively, faster than other CGI methods. Its drawback is that the characteristic sharing of classes among Apache processes is not safe for multiple applications[1] (e.g. multiple Ruby on Rails applications running simultaneously).
