Is Ruby Faster to Develop than PHP? Yes (What 5 people did in a year, I did in a week)
Can I make my Rails App Faster than the "old" PHP APP? Yes Is Ruby the bottleneck? No Can I learn new things in ruby fast? Yes Can I get them into Production fast? Yes Can I scale applications to support billion dollar Multi-national companies? Yes I know a dozen languges(Of the computer type), a kernel hacker, device driver writer, and a embedded systems developer. I can make ruby stand up and shout, and I can do it with a hour a day. After having 5 man years into a PHP project, we scrapped it, and I recoded it in rails in no time at all, by myself.
