I think you're misinterpreting me. I'd love for Laurent to be right, and 
I'd love to know how to get around the cases that end up slowing down 
JRuby. I sincerely hope it's possible, since it would mean JRuby can 
probably do whatever MacRuby does in those cases. And I may be able to 
help if some of the optimization ideas are discussed more openly; I had 
similar discussions with IronRuby folks at RubyConf 2007 and saved them 
going down a path that I knew would eventually break code.
