title: Play! framework vs Ruby on Rails
body: <p>It's not going to be a request for general comparisson: </p>
  
  <p><strong>Play! framework is Java based</strong> which means the code is interpreted to bytecode and then compiled by the JVM in runtime. On the other hand, <strong>Ruby is a dynamic language</strong> which means the code is interpreted with every request. This is certainly obvious for every programmer.</p>
  
  <p>Another aspect is the development process and the ease of the language (strong typing vs weak typing).</p>
  
  <p>Currently I'm developing a new website using Play!<br>
  So, for the questions:  </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><strong>Performance for an HTTP server</strong> (Play! runs on the JVM, Ruby is dynamic) - does it really matter for a website? would you see a significant differences? </li>
  <li>I feel RoR has much <strong>larger community, sources, tutorials etc</strong>, and it's a little batter me. Or should it?</li>
  </ol>
