It is profoundly sad how Rails has institutionalized a "nobody cares" attitude toward performance.https://twitter.com/samsaffron/status/1002446941156884480 …

This is a really bad take.
@samsaffron has had access since March to the repository for an experiment I've been working on for a long while to fix exactly this. I've asked for help getting benchmark numbers for it on Discourse... I have no clue why it wasn't included here.1 reply 1 retweet 26 likes -

I will revise that to include numbers for the experiment repo, and the take that nobody cares about performance is not correct. However the current giant pain needs no additional libraries to get solved for PG it can be fixed in Ruby

The take that "developer happiness" is the only thing that matters, and that performance can be ignored, is absolutely enshrined in Rails culture.. and has been from day one.

I'm not sure what your goal is here. There is definitely a discussion that could be had about what we prioritize and why. But everything here is just accusatory, and will do nothing but put folks on the defensive. It's not going to lead to anything productive.

I did not see my blog post accusatory at all it was an analysis of the current situation. I have no way to predict how "reality" will make people react, but think it is very important to take some first step to properly explain what "reality" is.
