Running Activerecord asynchronously

I have a worker that accepts data from a queue (rabbitmq) and inside the worker I want to create records with activerecord asynchronously, my current implementation is something like:

require "rubygems"
require "amqp"
require 'eventmachine'
require 'em-http'

AMQP.start(:host => $AMQP_URL) do |connection|
  @queue ||= AMQP::Channel.new(connection).queue("results")

  @queue.subscribe do |body|              
    EventMachine::HttpRequest.new('http://someurl').post :body => {:message =>  body }    
    Record.create!(:name => body)
  end
end 

      

        
        
        
      

    

I want to run Recording asynchronously to improve performance, any recommendations here?
