howto install:

autoconf
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ruby1.9
make
sudo make install



For a long while we were expecting this product that should increase Ruby performance tremendously.
Mind you, I had yet seen a web application running slow because of Ruby. Most of the cases it was misusage of database and memory structures, the major down-pit Rails developers fall into (newbies as well as experts).

Ruby 1.9 is here anyway (dev. version), let's give it a try!
