Grails Case Study: Product Reviews at Wired.com

Graeme Rocher announced availability of a Grails case study.

The article goes about how happy Wired.com is because of the choice of Grails as a technology for building Product Reviews portion of the site.

Along with the usual testimonials to moderately flat learning curve, the speed of development, and ease of maintenance, there is a noteworthy section on performance. Paul Fisher, Manager of Technology at Wired.com, says:
The performance we have seen from Grails has been extremely encouraging, especially against other rapid development frameworks, such as Ruby on Rails and Django. In my experience Grails runs much faster.
However unsubstantiated, this is a very encouraging statement.
