Rails uses a share-nothing architecture, just like LAMP, and can scale
to kingdom come.  At Omniture we used PHP and MySQL to scale far
larger than most of the so-called enterprise applications out there.
Have you ever had to deal with millions of INSERTs per minute?  I
have, and I'm here to tell you that it can be done with LAMP, Rails or
any other share-nothing architecture.
