IMNSHO, Ruby is only suitable for prototyping and low volume uses. it
doesn't scale well, and ruby/rails websites perform abysmally under
heavy workloads.
that said, the 'correct' way of dealing with something like this in the
RHEL world is to build whatever version you need for your purposes, test
it, and package it as your OWN rpm's for production deployment.
