You get all of the advantages of single page apps, without the unresponsive initial load time. There are also whole classes of apps you can't build with Django, RoR etc, so the question is a bit ridiculous IMO.

It really isn't. Jumping into using a huge performance sink like ember to add a little interactivity to a content page is a horrible decision to start with. This just seems to drag the poor performance back to kill your server

That's a straw man though. Sure, adding Ember for a "little interactivity" is kind of stupid. But if you want to add a lot of interactivity? Is a load of "$.click" function soup better?
