This was a while ago, and I cannot find my source at the moment, but I recall reading a benchmark done that put RoR faster than PHP, but slower than Python by a large margin (without server-side caching and other performance tweaks). If I find the original article or maybe a more recent one on the subject of performance, I'll be sure to share it.
