Oh, I bet there is.  My "killer app" is Iowa because of the development ease 
and speed advantage it gives me.

Rails and Iowa, while having different architectures, have a lot of overlap 
in the problems that they solve, so I have no doubt that programming with 
Rails imparts a boost to development speed.
