GitLab is a Rails app, what did you expect? /s We use gitea (written in Go), it runs well on more modest hardware.

Why the sarcasm? Rails is a pig.

Probably because GitHub is also built on Rails.

I wonder if there's a chance GitLab will be rewritten in a more efficient language.

GitLab VPE here. We are starting to re-write performance intensive part of our application in Golang. E.g. our Gitaly project: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly

That's awesome. Great choice of a language. We just moved to Gitlab internally (we were actually starting to do so before the MSFT news). Very happy so far. Looking forward to speed improvements.
