Isn't that just self inflicted though? You probably wouldn't have had to write C/threaded code if you chose a faster runtime like C#/Java/Go/Kotlin/Scala instead of ruby.

At the time, Go/Kotlin didn't exist, Scala wasn't established, C# was Windows only, and Java and the JVM more generally were a thing that everyone was running to Ruby and Rails from for lots of reasons. Probably wouldn't have gotten the thing out the door if I had to do it in Java.
