front applications only parts
the reason ruby is slow in comparison to other languages…
and in real time systems also it wont be used…
Well, you won’t be running a Google or Amazon so no worries. BTW Amazon
uses a lot of Perl last I heard. In fact, I don’t recall Java being a
big part of the framework at Amazon. It was/is a Perl/Mason shop for
the most part.
Ruby is plenty fast enough for 90% of the sites out there. Hardware is
cheap, programmer’s salaries are not. The vast majority of us are not
running Googles, Yahoos, Amazons, eBays, etc.
