 Test Script:
 {{{
 #!ruby
 require 'benchmark'

 Benchmark.bm(15) do |x|
   str = "abcdef" * 10000000
   x.report "#size" do
     str.size
   end

   x.report "#length (1)" do
     # first time
     str.length
   end

   x.report "#length (2)" do
     # second time
     str.length
   end

   str2 = str.dup
   x.report "#length (3)" do
     str2.length
   end
 end
 }}}

 Result:
 {{{
 $ macruby bm_str_length.rb
