    In my opinion, one of the issues with RoR is resources. RoR/Mongrel seems to take up more than LAMP. Not too sure why, but I did see the results of it while working at my last regular jog (freelancer now). They had a program built in RoR by some Russians that seemed really buggy, slow, etc. Maybe it was the programmers, maybe not. Although, if you're going to run RoR, I would suggest running a Mongrel cloud and routing through Apache. I did some research on that (part of a proposal to speed up the companies online web applications) and most resources stated 5-10% performance boost. The other issue is definitely lack of documentation/references. Without that, who wants to take the time to learn a new language/framework when you already know one that works?

this tutorial shows how to combine four single storage servers (running Ubuntu 9.10) to one large storage server (distributed storage) with GlusterFS. The client system (Ubuntu 9.10 as well) will be able to access the storage as if it was a local filesystem. GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86_64 servers with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA.
