You don't say anything about the style of your application itself. Is it the
kind of forms-driven site with a newly-developed domain model that is
generally a good fit for Rails? Apart from a Japanese-language issue, you
don't say what has guided your choice of a framework (or no framework). If
you have really decided to generate your dynamic content from Ruby
unassisted by a framework, then there are several high-performance
deployment options for you to consider.

I'd look at Kirk Haines's Swiftiply.
