This article shows PBKDF2 as being barely any slower than sha2 but makes no mention of how many rounds it is configured for. The note at the end implies that something is misconfigured. I'm not a rubyist, but something is definitely wrong there. PBKDF2 is maybe not the best choice but is certainly safe and better than sha3 if configured correctly.
If the author is reading here, it's probably best to take PBKDF2 out of the graph until you get it properly configured. Otherwise, people may choose sha3 as their password hashing function.
