#1265: Gem loading slow ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: sferik@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: MacRuby 1.0 Component: MacRuby | Keywords: optimization, speed, performance, gem, loading, require ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Comment(by mrada@…): I've looked into this and the problem is the addressable gem, not in octokit. Data mapper has the same issue (because it depends on addressable). Specifically, lib/addressable/idna/pure.rb takes forever to load and it actually causes the macruby compiler to crash. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/1265#comment:2> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>

If I remove most of the hash, the gem loads much faster (proportionally). -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/1265#comment:4> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>

I've also compiled a list of all the gems that depend on addressable (there are over 100 of them): https://gist.github.com/420e05aaffc39dd44fd2 -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/1265#comment:6> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>

(7 seconds on my machine vs 1.5min). But still not acceptable. Obviously this is compilation time, so compiling the gem into .rbo files should fix the problem. We cannot pre-compile gems as .rbo yet because the debugging metadata is lost, and exceptions would not contain proper backtraces. Maybe we should work on that for the upcoming release. -- Ticket URL: <http://www.macruby.org/trac/ticket/1265#comment:8> MacRuby <http://macruby.org/>
