> mutable state on the ApplicationController and the models

Well, mutable state on the models seems pretty fair, unless I'm misunderstanding you. It's rather unforgivable on ApplicationController though.

Edit: and the slow startup time doing TDD with JRuby was my primary complaint when I developed in it. Although iirc you can use nailgun or something to keep the JVM active and mitigate that pain.

Sorry, I meant mutable state on classes, which is just a sneaky way of having global state.

Can you give an example? I'm learning Rails and I'd like to avoid bad practices.
