Be cautious of "loopback requests", where a Rails application executes a request to a server that in turn, results in another request back to the same Rails application before the first request is completed. Having a loopback request will trigger [Rails' load interlock](https://guides.rubyonrails.org/threading_and_code_execution.html#load-interlock) mechanism. The load interlock mechanism prevents a thread from using Rails autoloading mechanism to load constants while the application code is still running inside another thread.
This issue only occurs in the development environment as Rails' load interlock is not used in production environments.
This issue only occurs in the development environment as Rails' load interlock is not used in production environments. Although we're not sure, we believe this issue may not occur with the new `zeitwerk` code loader.
### Solutions
#### 1. Bypass Rails' load interlock with `.permit_concurrent_loads`
Wrap the first request inside a block that will allow concurrent loads, [`ActiveSupport::Dependencies.interlock.permit_concurrent_loads`](https://guides.rubyonrails.org/threading_and_code_execution.html#permit-concurrent-loads). Anything wrapped inside the `.permit_concurrent_loads` block will bypass the load interlock mechanism, allowing new threads to access the Rails environment and boot properly.

###### Example
###### Example
```ruby
response = ActiveSupport::Dependencies.interlock.permit_concurrent_loads do
# Your HTTP request code here. For example:
Faraday.post url, data: 'foo'
end
```ruby
response = ActiveSupport::Dependencies.interlock.permit_concurrent_loads do
# Your HTTP request code here. For example:
Faraday.post url, data: 'foo'
end
do_something_with response
```
do_something_with response
```
#### 2. Use multiple processes on Puma
Alternatively, you may also enable multiple single-threaded workers on Puma. By doing so, you are sidestepping the problem by creating multiple processes rather than new threads. However, this workaround is not ideal because debugging tools such as [byebug](https://github.com/deivid-rodriguez/byebug/issues/487) and [pry](https://github.com/pry/pry/issues/2153), work poorly with any multi-process web server.
