I tried rails once. Startup was fast, but after 3 months we got stuck and things weren't so fast anymore.

Modern Java EE let's you start about as fast as rails, especially when starting from a good Maven archetype. The code is immensely simplified. I got a backend service with JAX-RS and CDI running in literally no time!
