I am sure there will be many jokes made about Java being slow or something of the sort.
That being clear, if you wish to use Java on the server side, check out Struts. There are plenty of books, tutorials and so forth.
If you want to use GWT I have no clue about books but there is plenty online.
I haven't done too much with RoR, but I would wonder what you mean by it being slow? What exactly are you doing and how are you doing it? I use a lot of Python/Django, and do some pretty crazy stuff, and the response times are not an issue.
- tlrobinson 19y agoCompared to other server side web technologies, Java is definitely not slow. It's a common misconception that Java itself is slow, probably because many Java desktop apps are slow.
- cstejerean 19y agoJava is definitely not slow, not at least compared to Python or Ruby. And if you're going to write your webapp in C, good luck. Actually Java can be quite fast now, often times faster than C because of the JIT compiler and incredible optimizations. IIRC the latest release of JRuby is faster than the C Ruby implementation. With that said I never liked Java for web development.
