Not that concerned about scaling - I think it's going to beat Rails there, but for a larger web app growing quickly, the difference between going to N web servers from 1 might not be that many months.

But the actual number of concurrents per instance, and the effect on latency, is quite another thing. And it also provides you a better story around shared state within the instance, and better controls around its access.
