Hello,
Since, Rack puppet master is being deprecated [3], the choice should be
clear.
To answer your question, the main difference is performance. Try to run
your env with WEBrick ;)
I do not have my own evidence but puppetlabs claim the jruby/java
implementation of puppetserver outperforms apache/passenger, others seem
to see it this way, too. [1],[2]
The downside is the java typical start up time (still neglectable
compared to other projects like jira/confluence).
I am running puppetserver with jvm and can at least tell it performs
better than puppet3/passenger - compile times are lower; though not
significantly.
Cheers,
