New RubyMIne EAP release

I just updated to RM-112.49 release today, November 29, 2011. It seems to be an improvement over the previous release, about 1% less CPU usage and 20 fewer threads.

Why use the EAP release? Well, it has more support for Rails 3.1.

Why use RubyMine over other editors / IDEs? This is a much harder question to answer. Let me tell you I have used just about all of the reasonable alternatives. None are perfect.  Some work faster and are more native applications.  But I like the rvm and git integration.  It also has most of the best features of other alternatives plus a lot of its own.  It is a little slower but with a really fast machine it is hardly noticeable.
