Luckily there is more to Ruby than Rails. I love writing Ruby code, but dislike Rails (with a passion - as I point out in my article in both footnotes and between the lines ;) (bad) performance of your Rails code is very much about Rails. And very much about how easy Rails makes it to abuse your database. But much less about the performance of the language Ruby.
