    • Disable app preload in gunicorn for LMS & Studio. · 5511e848
      Since the earliest days of edX, we've run gunicorn with preload_app as
      True. This was primarily because the first handful of courses were using
      the XMLModuleStore, which was extremely slow to initialize because it
      had to read entire courses from disk and load them into memory at
      startup.
      
      XMLModuleStore courses stopped being created with the introduction of
      Studio, and we've long since removed them from edx.org. Note: This
      should not be confused with importing courses that are authored in XML.
      XMLModuleStore courses are courses who use the disk instead of Mongo
      for content persistence, and require a server restart for content edits
      to show.
      
      This commit sets things back to how Django is more commonly deployed
      with gunicorn. It will make server startup time somewhat more expensive
      because each worker process does init work, but it should make it
      easier to safely enable features like database connection pooling
      without having to worry about shared resources.
