It works fine and usually feels just as fast as MRI once it gets running. The startup time is really slow, but I've heard that the latest release fixes that a bit. http://archive.jruby.codehaus.org/dev/481A4453.3060307%40sun.com It has these pockets of inconsistent sluggishness though. Like at one point I think I was just doing String#constantize in a rails app and my processor spiked for like 3-5 seconds before producing a result. I theorize that it has something to do with how heavily Rails monkeypatches the core classes. Hopefully http://code.google.com/soc/2008/ruby/appinfo.html?csaid=3A00346D0DF1DDE6 will resolve some of these inconsistencies. I'm really excited to have a high-performance ruby implementation that my ops team doesn't have to even be aware of :) -Mat _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe or change your settings, visit: http://lists.phillyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
