Newbie question about Ruby, Rails and web servers

ruby-talk

Hi... I'm new to Ruby... Sorry for a silly question but I'm thinking about what server should I use to my Rails application. What will be faster? WebRick or Apache? Or maybe another ?

P.S. Server will contain only my Rails application ... not any PHP scripts or something else.

Regards
Jacek

Last I heard, lighttp with SCGI had become the front-runner.

But the Rails list might be a better place to inquire on this.
