Constructively, I just wanted to say that you can't claim that something is fast if speed is thanks to something else. OP said people thinks rails is slow but if you have a fast query it's a solved problem. Even python would be fast in this instance with an optimized query

I wasn't trying to argue that ruby is slow (it objectively is). I was arguing that its slowness is irrelevant for most webapps because you should be offloading most of the load to your database with efficient queries.
