jRuby 1.1 Emerges. Big Feature and Performance Gains.

posted Saturday, 5 April 2008
Congratulations go to the JRuby community!  jRuby 1.1 is out and constitutes the second major release of the jRuby project.  It is a big release because it offers up some major features :
- a compiler which compiles Ruby to Java Bytecodes (in AOT and JIT modes)
- Oniguruma port to Java
- Refactored IO implementation
- Improved memory consumption
- thousands of compatibility fixes
You can download it from here.  You can find more information here.  Performance is now beginning to exceed Ruby 1.9 and lots of reports of apps exceeding the performance of Ruby 1.8.6.
