Thanks for the info, Josh, but I'm about halfway into my rails app. If I'm to switch over to JRuby, would that mean I have to start from scratch? BTW, I don't need to store anything into SQL Server. My rails app is just to retrieve the data from SQL Server and output the same in JSON with a REST interface.
At the same time, I'd like to explore this TorqueBox/JRuby. Where do I start?
