In considering languages to use in creating a web-application that interfaces with a database back-end, has anyone had experience in using Yuma and can share how stable it is and what kind of performance it may give?

A:
I use Yuma and am pretty happy with it. However, I haven't thrown the kitchen sink at it so don't know how well it scales. Yuma does provide a developer download so if you're interested you should check it out. I use it for a few apps that have a custom back ends. If you're familiar with RealBasic it's a piece of cake to use.
The only downside is there are tons of source for php and python (scripts, etc), publicly available source for Yuma is practically non-existent because it is so new. Also, finding a hosting provider to host a Yuma back-end is doable but probably not as prevalent as php.
I'd recommend trying it out if you're a RealBasic user. Very little learning curve and some good stuff like caching and use of FASTCGI, etc.
