The more important questions are how each platform monetizes traffic, what level of control it gives publishers, what requirements must be met, and how much work is involved in managing advertising.

Every restart costs deploys, CI, and human attention. And agents boot apps way more than people. So, our convenient new require-profiler gem shows what happens during boot: requires, Rails initializers, YAML parsing, HTTP calls. Run it, then drop to a sampling profiler for what the tree can’t explain. One 200-component monolith cut development boot time by 40%.

It is free, reliable, and managed by Google. The one complaint many users have, however, is the appearance of the default themes.
