Commenting on your addendum: PJAX-rails has some unfixable problems, which goes back down to layouts.rb in the actionpack. I had to fork it to make it usable to me. (github/eduardordm/pjax) A nice post from Yehuda about turbolinks: https://plus.google.com/u/1/106300407679257154689/posts/A65agXRynUn https://plus.google.com/u/1/106300407679257154689/posts/A65a... Most frameworks do support initial payloads (discourse does that with Ember, for instance) This discussion is really important to the internet as a whole, some frameworks are potentially dangerous, not only to search engines but to the long-term availability of information.

I agree I found PJAX a pain in the ass in a number of scenarios. It's great for basic navigation but not so easy for anything more. Perhaps we just tried to do too much with it, but in the end we were able to get it to work for our needs. That said our app was very read heavy and content driven so it made sense. I would be very hesitant to consider it for anything more than that though which is what makes me a bit skeptical of the author's conclusions. I'm arguably no expert though.
