Ruby GC execution exceeding ~250-320ms per request

Question

I have a ruby on rails application. I am investigating an Apdex decline in my NewRelic portal and I\'m seeing that on average, 250-320ms of time is being spent on GC execution.

There's also this little hack, which may work. But bigger applications tend to allocate such a large amount of memory that you kill a worker per request :-/
