Ruby Implementation Shootout 112

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Monday February 19, 2007 @02:04PM from the always-with-the-shooting dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Ruby has an ever growing number of alternative implementations, and many of these attempt to improve the suboptimal performance of the current mainstream interpreter. Antonio Cangiano has an interesting article in which he benchmarks a few of the most popular Ruby implementations, including Yarv (the heart of Ruby 2.0), JRuby, Ruby.NET, Rubinius and Cardinal (Ruby on Parrot). Numerical evidence is provided rather than shear opinions. The tests show that Yarv is the fastest implementation and that it offers a promising future when it comes to the speed of the next Ruby version."

from TFA:

Would that be what the author thinks about scissors? For the semi-literate that should be "sheer opinion," not "shear opinions."

from the summary:
Numerical evidence is provided rather than shear opinions.

Do those opinions come from sheeple?
