Thanks to Mongrel2 you can do real time in Ruby too or with the language you happen to like the most or for which you have the right "business logic" libraries.

Thanks to Mongrel2 you can do real time in Ruby too or with the language you happen to like the most or for which you have the right "business logic" libraries. Having code in production running both NodeJS and Mongrel2, I am happy to see both of them growing.

you can do real time in Ruby too Please don't overload the meaning of "real-time"; It doesn't mean "real fast".

  Do you imply that EventMachine is slower than Node.js for IO-bound tasks?

    Please, look it up. From wikipedia: "A system is said to be real-time if the total correctness of an operation depends not only upon its logical correctness, but also upon the time in which it is performed."

  I think we're past that point: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_web http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_web

    I saw the disambiguation page for "Real-time" again last night, and you're absolutely right.
