I'd vote that Windows is the slow component. I was dual booting XP Pro and Ubuntu 7.10 for a while, and just sourcing a big database in MySQL was 25 minutes in Windows, 7 minutes in Ubuntu on the same physical hardware. Ruby on windows still has to play by the Windows rules, so it may in fact be slower than ruby on *nix/Mac, but not due to its own faults. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
