I really am not interested in lines of code or the performance, I am
interested in fast application development. The problem I think with
ruby on rails is, as the models include interaction logic with each
other (as far as I know in ruby on rails the controller does not handle
this) which complicateds business models, makes them tightly coupled on
each other. Furthermore, the sql scripts recommended to be inserted
into business model does really smell, tightly coupling the database
selection.

So, in my opinion,

A good framework, is not the one you create applications fast. No
matter how fast you create an application, that speed will not beat,
being able to use a great deal of what you have done previously.
Reusability.

thus, lines of code or running speed has little importance, comparing
to this issue. Ruby on rails is cool, can be used to build small apps,
but is inadequate for filling your pockets with code to be used on
later, I think.
