I don't understand why "SQL caching" means bypassing Rails.
I mean if you do whole page caching then you bypass Rails, after the first call. But if you're only caching the SQL call then you still need something to format it into HTML, which I'm guessing in Twitter's case is Rails.
You're also conflating Ruby (the language) and Rails (the web framework).
