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 4.9.0 - TempfileReaper support in Rack 1.6
This release supports the Rack::TempfileReaper middleware found
in rack 1.6 for cleaning up disk space used by temporary files.
We also use Rack::TempfileReaper for cleaning up large temporary
files buffered with TeeInput. Users on rack 1.5 and earlier
will see no changes.
There's also a bunch of documentation/build system improvements.
This is likely to be the last Ruby 1.8-compatible release, unicorn 5.x
will require 1.9.3 or later as well as dropping lots of cruft (the
stupid "Status:" header in responses being the most notable).
