#568: MacRuby is a lot slower than 18, and in 19, in this benchmark. -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: rob@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: MacRuby | Keywords: -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- This isn't a bug or anything like that, but I just thought I'd report how much slower MacRuby can be when compared to MRI 18 or 19. {{{ require 'benchmark' Benchmark.bm do |r| r.report { (0..10_000_000).to_a.map(&:to_s) } end }}} MRI 18 reported 8 seconds or there abouts, and MRI 19 reported 4 seconds. The macruby interpreter reported 20-30 seconds, and the same is true for the binary made by macrubyc. I understand this isn't a bug, and you probably want a stable macruby before you look at stuff like this but i just thought i'd throw it out there. I should probably mention in other benchmarks I've tried, the macruby compiler came out on top. Thanks. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/568> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>
