Way back at the Portland Rails conference at the beginning of 2007, a
large portion of the “buzz” was regarding JRuby and how it was going to
revolutionize the speed of Rails apps.
In looking through the Rails Deployment forum here, I see no mention of
JRuby on Rails, and poking around here and there I don’t see any mention
of how JRuby on Rails is being used to solve speed problems for Rails
hosting.
I was just wondering what the current state of things are w.r.t. hosting
production Rails apps with JRuby, and if it is becoming common, what
sort of speed gains people are seeing.
If it isn’t time yet, or the speed gains aren’t panning out, what
happened?
thanks,
