jEdit does not seem slow to me (on Ubuntu), certainly comparable to
codewright on windows which I used to use. I have a four year old
laptop and it runs fine. There are lots of good plugins. You need
the project viewer for managing sets of files as a project (a rails
app for example) and sidekick which does ruby parsing, method index
and so on. It has built in ruby syntax colouring.
