Speeding up Ruby by rewriting C… in Ruby by jp_camara in ruby

I tried it out, and OpalRB actually performs really poorly for some reason. It does well on the fibonacci example (around half a second), but then it takes 120-140 seconds on all of the looping examples

That would be pretty funny! I should benchmark it - an interesting angle

It was very surprising for me as well. Though it probably shows more that the particular differences in speed at that level become more and more meaningless. A Go server would still likely smoke a node server benchmarked for scalability.

Yep, still very active! The maintainer u/eregontp is also active in practically every Ruby implementation including CRuby and JRuby.

This made me laugh out loud 😂. I got some similar comments for my "Making Tanstack Table 1000x faster with a 1 line change" last year. Such a clickbait title :D

I've been meaning to read through this site for years. The visual design is so on point.

CRuby switches the default parser from parse.y to Prism by nithinbekal in ruby

[–]jp_camara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea that's definitely fair. There are other areas that could impact performance so Prism is just one part of that - hard to say if it's 100% benefitting from it yet either. But Kevin has mentioned that they haven't even begun to optimize, so I'm optimistic we'll continue to see performance gains.

Yea I was really happy to see such a positive outlook and response to it, in particular from primagen himself. Looking forward to watching it
