I have developed tons of applications in both Java and Ruby.

There was never a time when I thought "damn, all those hours I'm wasting due to compilation". Never. With a good IDE compilation happens completely transparent in the background during the development process.

If you really have substantial overhead from compilation another language will not solve your underlying issues.
