A relatively unknown webserver from LiteSpeed Technologies claims to be six times faster than Apache with a PHP interface that is 50% faster than mod_php…Litespeed webserver is available in 3 editions, the standard edition being free (for both personal and commercial use).
And it can launch RoR applications . Maybe not so hot news, because we already have quick fastcgi capable web server like lighttpd . Still some alternative is good.
