Hmm, I have used Cabify and it's a horribly slow application. Now I know why.

- javierhonduco 14y agoAs far as I'm concerned, Rubymotion shoudn't decrease the performance of an app...
- firlefans 14y agoYup Rubymotion isn't interpreted, it's compiled file by file to LLVM bytecode, this negatively effects development speed but it means it runs (roughly) as fast as pure obj-c (or so they claim on the rubymotion site). We're using it at the moment to develop an app, it's great at keeping code DRY, debuggability on device kinda sucks atm though.
- thibaut_barrere 14y agoGiven how RubyMotion works (not an interpreter unlike regular Ruby), if the app is slow (I didn't test!) then it's very likely not related to RubyMotion.
- cicloid 14y ago- "We hope to launch a new completely redesigned app in the next few weeks, as opposed to months!" It seems the app for common users is not the RubyMotion app.
- jcromartie 14y agoNo, you don't. Of all the things I have against RubyMotion, performance is not one of them.
- rebo 14y agoThey are not using Rubymotion for their customer app yet.
- batista 14y agoI call BS. Your other comment in the same thread does not mention you using Cabify at all -- it's a general slant against the company for using "unproven technology". And your account was created one hour ago, just to deliver these two negative comments here.
