I think the more important questions to ask are: Is Ruby easier and more enjoyable that PHP?
Yes Is Ruby cleaner than PHP? Yes Is Ruby on Rails easier than CakePHP? Yes Does using Rails make you a better developer than using CakePHP? I would say Yes. Those are the important questions to be asking. Now, as far as speed. Depending on how the app is built, Ruby could certainly be faster than PHP and vice versa. All languages are slow if not built and configured correctly. Once again, this is a debate that cannot be had on these generalizations alone, unless you are talking about the pure core attributes of both languages. Ruby easier to learn and much more enjoyable and cleaner to use than PHP, period. --Cory On Oct 6, 4:19 pm, "Maurício Linhares" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Interesting to see that Raistlin itself can't answer these simple questions :) > > Now, to the answers: > > > Is Ruby faster than PHP? > > No. > > > Is Ruby on Rails faster than PHP on CakePHP? > > No. > > > Is Ruby on Rails faster than PHP? > > No. > > > Is Ruby faster than PHP on CakePHP? > > No. > > Easy, huh? > > On Mon, Oct 6, 2008 at 12:36 PM, Raistlin Majere <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Is Ruby faster than PHP? > > Is Ruby on Rails faster than PHP on CakePHP? > > Is Ruby on Rails faster than PHP? > > Is Ruby faster than PHP on CakePHP? > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ > > -- > Maurício Linhareshttp://alinhavado.wordpress.com/(pt-br) > |http://blog.codevader.com/(en) > João Pessoa, PB, +55 83 8867-7208 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
