I was deploy rails aplication on the basic droplet. There are nginx, ruby 2.0.0 through rvm, rails 4.0.1, foreman. All of this deploy with capistrano 3. When I start unicorn instances, they take all of the free CPU and CPU load is 100% whole time untill unicorn work. There is my unicorn.rb: worker_processes 4
working_directory “/var/www/apps/estate/current” # available in 0.94.0+
listen “/var/www/apps/estate/socket/.unicorn.sock”, :backlog => 64 listen 8080, :tcp_nopush => true
timeout 30
pid “/var/www/apps/estate/run/unicorn.pid”
stderr_path “/var/www/apps/estate/log/unicorn.stderr.log” stdout_path “/var/www/apps/estate/log/unicorn.stdout.log”
preload_app true GC.respond_to?(:copy_on_write_friendly=) and GC.copy_on_write_friendly = true
check_client_connection false
before_fork do |server, worker|
defined?(ActiveRecord::Base) and ActiveRecord::Base.connection.disconnect!
old_pid = “#{server.config[:pid]}.oldbin” if old_pid != server.pid begin sig = (worker.nr + 1) >= server.worker_processes ? :QUIT : :TTOU Process.kill(sig, File.read(old_pid).to_i) rescue Errno::ENOENT, Errno::ESRCH end end end
after_fork do |server, worker|
defined?(ActiveRecord::Base) and ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection
end What might be wrong with my settings?

I had the same problem. In my case it was some gems missing. After I installed them Unicorn took up not more than 0.3% CPU.
The problem was unclear since unicorn error log file didn’t show me anything. I tried to run Thin server instead and got nice “Can’t load” errors in its logs.
