Agreed, unless you are running high performance computing applications, like number crunching, your code will probably be slowed down by I/O, Database or other external factors. As far as performance, it isn’t a major concern for us yet. We are more focused on being compatible with RubySpec and CRuby. We will be involved in the Ruby Benchmark Suite project (http://antoniocangiano.com/2008/06/01/help-me-create-the-ruby-benchmark-suite/), and will focus on those benchmarks when the time comes. I’d say a better comparison would be “will we be at par with JRuby or CRuby” and we hope to be on par with JRuby eventually.
Sidenote: Can anyone give some links on those blogs (VB vs C#) they are both compiled to IL, so I don’t see why one would be faster, just curious.

Since i have ready many blogs claiming C# to be running faster than Vb.Net, i just wanted to reconfirm that will IronRuby at par with C# or Vb.Net. This question pre-supposes that the speed of the language is the most important factor in the performance of a web-site, an assertion I believe to be contrary to most evidence and experience.
