I foresee even more movement to the jvm. The only reason I'm not using jruby is because I like to have a separate server for each app I deploy. Most of these servers I configure with just 256Mb. The mri ruby version runs fine in this constraint, while the jruby version would like around 3 times that.
IMO, I don't see a resurgence to Java, but the jvm is a different story altogether.
