Sucker Punch is a single-process Ruby asynchronous processing library. This reduces costs of hosting on a service like Heroku along with the memory footprint of having to maintain additional jobs if hosting on a dedicated server. All queues can run within a single application (eg. Rails, Sinatra, etc.) process. Sucker Punch is perfect for asynchronous processes like emailing, data crunching, or social platform manipulation.
