The same could be said for python with calls into numpy and pytorch consuming much of the time, but no one calls it designed for speed.
With regards to what "idiomatic use" is for Ruby, we could argue that most ruby apps are web backends and most of those spend the majority of their waiting for DB and/or API calls and don't spend all that much doing work in actual Ruby.
