AFAIK this forum was created for Rails developers to help other Rails developers with problems. So if you're looking for help on how to scale Rails, maybe starting off with such a negative comment isn't really in your best interest. A couple of corrections though: Last I heard Twitter was implementing, at least, some parts of their site using Scala. I've not heard anything about them using PHP. Also, Twitter is just one example, and not a very good one at that. Let's not forget that there are many sites using Rails successfully, and I'd wager that a good number of those are handling a lot more traffic than anything you'll be building. If you're truly interested in how to scale Rails applications, rather than trying to insult the people you're hoping to get help from, you might enjoy this series sponsored by New Relic: http://railslab.newrelic.com/scaling-rails -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
