Alot of marketing firms go through great lengths to discredit different projects. With some of the RAD projects, they hit it right on the head. There are alot of "RAD" frameworks out there that are easy and fast TTM, but they don't scale and they lack the necessary weight in the right areas. However, on the other hand, they fail to tell you about their own demons. Like the XML pushups you have to go through or architecture design decisions which you have to jump through to change or work with. Django provides an incredibly simple framework with a multitude of options for different caching and other low level implementation decisions (which it achieves through decoupled code) while keeping the design language at a "RAD" level. It's able to run on mod_python which hooks straight into the C api of the apache framework. It has 6 different caching mechanisms and an array of different schemes or Middleware for controlling it's operation all of which are able to manipulated and configured usually with less than 1-4 LOC. All the while it maintains a simple API for rolling your own solutions. It's also is based on python which has the added advantage of not being a pain in the ass to use and keeping a low footprint and profile. If I could describe it to somebody coming from a java background, it's like springframework with out the java... or the j2ee... or the xml
