not how business logic is written.

It may not matter in the larger picture where other factors like database, network speed or capacity, etc. all take a piece of the pie but still, doesn't the fact that compiled languages perform way better than interpreted matter at all?

It is actually based on Rails.

Thanks, I fixed it now.

It does matter, just not to an extent that it usually offsets the cost of the additional development effort required. This is a different story in the embeded world for example, where the performance will impact margins far more.
