WebRick is only meant for development mode, not production.

Another choice (which we use) is Unicorn[1], though I have become a huge fan of Puma lately.

Fair point on WebRick. Unicorn is also a good choice for a Ruby HTTP server, although it doesn't run under JRuby. Puma I think is particularly interesting as it offers decent performance in both MRI and JRuby - although JRuby is still quicker in that case. (should add the results for Puma under MRI to the site)

Short version: switch to the JVM.
