The short answer is that I don't know, because I learned just enough Ruby and 
RoR to get that app running, and then stopped.  But given that the app did 
_almost_ nothing more than basic CRUD operations using RoR "scaffolding" (think 
D2W), I'd say the problem is Rails.  Never anything major, usually just 
breakage due to API changes.  But certainly something that you don't see with 
WebObjects and the ability to embed everything for deployment.  (Although this 
Rails app just ran on my laptop, it was "deployed" in the sense that I just 
wanted it to keep running.)
