I really like their commenting feature and found it much more engaging. I will continue to use both services. To be fair to Twitter, the scaling issues can be a nightmare and I am sure they are trying very hard to resolve this. I have done comparisons on both and I prefer Jauku for several reasons.

At these levels, what counts is your skill of generally scaling a Web app (base design, caching, DB, session sharing, optimizing web server/OS/etc configurations etc) rather than the particular language you chose to work with. PHP has the advantage of significantly better scaling out of the box - ie, you'll get further trafficwise before requiring special scaling expertise - but, again, at the traffic levels Twitter deals with, you'll need scaling expertise no matter which environment you chose. (FWIW, I'm no Rails fanboy - did a lot more PHP than RoR so far - and frankly still don't see the point of Twitter at all ;)) My $0.02 on scaling:
