That's a very diplomatic assessment of Rails.
I administer multiple Rails applications - GitLab, a custom CMS, one
of the eCommerce packages, and a full Web application that was
developed in house. I cannot believe how much of a resource drain
they are, even having gone through the pain of optimising the entire
stack. I think the smallest RAM footprint I've ever seen out of Rails
is 450 MB resident.
This isn't even a Ruby problem; I have seen Sinatra using under 50 MB.
For a large Redmine install with a lot of users and some concurrency
(i.e. multiple people doing /something/ at the same time), I wouldn't
use a box with less than 2 GB RAM and dual-core. And that's pushing it.
Look, I used to *be* a Rails developer. I like the rapid prototyping
that it allows and I even *still* use it for that. But it isn't
something I would ever choose to run in production.
