I was curious how effective is ruby if I compare to anothter language. I have implemented the "payroll" application from "Agile Software Development" in ruby. It took me 10 times less LOC than the author wrote it. Great isn' it. However the original "payroll" was developed in c++ i could imagine some similar results with Java. Here is my post about it: http://orbanbotond.blogspot.com/2008/01/ruby-on-rails-productivity.html
