If you have ever written something in Ruby, you might have noticed that Ruby is SLOW. I would go ahead and say that it is "pretty darn slow". May be this is the price you pay for all that 'syntactic sugar'?
A very simple bench mark - I created a class, added a to_s method, tried to print contents of the class, It took 10X time compared to Java 5 & Java 6 on Windows.
Oh by the way, I have to check out if this is same in OS X too.
