I would disagree with RoR being extremely quick. I inherited a commercial site using RoR and I'm completely replacing it in web2py. One reason is because of its long pauses while users are trying to get their tasks done. RoR was quick when the site was small, but now that its grown it is bogging down. Although I am not a RoR expert, I have a team of professional RoR developers maintaining the site and they assure me the site is performing as quickly as it can.
My prototype web2py site is orders of magnitude faster and I've scaled it up even larger than the current site with test loads. I expect it will easily outperform my existing RoR site.
