Has anyone done any recent benchmarking on RoR vs. JSP? Our testing on a very simple URL that simply shows the time indicates that RoR (or jRoR to be exact) seems to take 30+ms to return the results. This is contrast to 2-4ms for JSP. Is 30+ms reasonable with your experience or have we messed something up? We are running on Tomcat btw.
Thanks
That sounds totally broken. I don't see anything close to that kind of lag on Tomcat, Glassfish, or any other container I've tried.
Are you using NewRelic or rails-footnotes or anything to monitor your app? That would be a good first step, I'd say.
FWIW,
No - have not tried that. These timingsa were with a simple time app. Could you check your timing for a hello world type of a simple app?
Why don't you post your instrumented test case and I'll run it?
