Yes, I have been using Ruby 1.9.1 in production for several months now.
Also, in your research, I would also take a look at JRuby and the glassfish

I would recommend using Passenger or thin.

Yes, I have noticed significant performance in Ruby code execution.
However,
there''s no silver-bullet and Ruby language is only one part of the
performance

Furthermore, it really depends on what you''re doing in your Rails
application.

Rails code worked as expected being that Rails tests are run against both
Ruby 1.8.x and Ruby 1.9.1.
