You are comparing a beautifully minimal web library (Sinatra) to an abominable horror from the very depths of hell (Wicket).

It is at best an inappropriate comparison.

If you read again you see I praise the Ruby community for its beautiful APIs.

The comparison with Wicket was purely on performance. As that is something that Ruby will most likely never fully catch up with.
