Hi François,

Can you give a bit more context, perhaps? In macirb, are you loading a file
with the function or entering it at the prompt? In Xcode, do the queries
result from a pure ruby file, or are you doing a ruby call from Obj-C? What
libraries/gems are you using to connect to MySQL? Is there an 'eval' call
involved in making the queries?

To be honest, things should be much faster from Xcode, since macruby_deploy
will compile all of your ruby sources to .rbo files. The exception would be
if your code contains copious use of "eval". It is also possible that you
have stumbled on a perf bug (the best kind of bug, IMHO), in which case it
would be great if you could reduce the code down to something minimal that
other devs could run locally.

Cheers,

Josh
