quite honestly i think only looking at the webpage and the examples 
doesnt
show enough to judge if it speeds up development or not. give it a try 
=)

quite honestly i still dont understand how somebody could say rails is 
'unusable'.
how many apps are out there which cant do caching and at the same time
have thousands of requests at the same time? if you are building 
amazon2 rails
might just not be the right thing for you. but then again, then you 
might have the
money to make it not matter anymore if there are 1 or 50 servers =)

that doesnt mean though that rails' performance wont improve. it will..
