I personally prefer prototype because of what I believe is a programmer friendly object oriented-ish design. The only time I've really run into performance issues was in dealing with large numbers of Draggables and Droppables.. but that's already been covered at length in previous list topics.
(By the way, thanks Ryan for the lazy loading article :) Welcome to the list! Rails is not a requirement. Heck, I only recently started learning Ruby after I had started learning a little .NET. (I just know I'll get hassled about this at my next Rails users group meeting... ) As for your namespacing YUI style vs. Prototype, I don't forsee a problem as long as you keep straight which parts follow your YUI standard and which are prototype. It's up to you.
