Well, yes and no. The Ruby Performance Dichotomy Framework Code VS Application Code Benchmarking: The only way to really know performance characteristics Profiling: Measure don’t guess. ruby-prof What is all this good for in real life? Merb Merb Like most useful code it started as a hack, Merb == Mongrel + Erb • No cgi.rb !! • Clean room implementation of ActionPack • Thread Safe with configurable Mutex Locks • Rails compatible REST routing • No Magic( well less anyway ;) • Did I mention no cgi.rb? • Fast! On average 2-4 times faster than rails Design Goals • Small core framework for the VC in MVC • ORM agnostic, use ActiveRecord, Sequel, DataMapper or roll your own db access. • Prefer simple code over magic code • Keep the stack traces short( I’m looking at you alias_method_chain) • Thread safe, reentrant code Merb Hello World No code is faster then no code • Simplicity and clarity trumps magic every time. • When in doubt leave it out. • Core framework to stay small and simple and easy to extend without gross hacks • Prefer plugins for non core functionality • Plugins can be gems Key Differences • No auto-render. The return value of your controller actions is what gets returned to client • Merb’s render method just returns a string, allowing for multiple renders and more flexibility • PartController’s allow for encapsualted applets without big performance cost Why not work on Rails instead of making a new framework? • Originally I was trying to optimize Rails and make it more thread safe.

Making the JVM perform well with various with dynamically-typed languages lags behind purpose-built statically- and dynamically-typed languages clearly requires language-specific JIT compilers. In this paper, we aim to significant effort, not only in optimizing the JVM itself, but contribute to the understanding of the workloads imposed on also, more importantly, in optimizing the bytecode-emitting the JVM by dynamic languages. We use various metrics to language compiler, instead of just relying on the original JIT characterize the dynamic behavior of a variety of programs to gain performance [8]. This in turn requires that developers written in three dynamic languages (Clojure, Python, and of both the language compilers and the JVM understand the Ruby) executing on the JVM. We identify the differences characteristics of the JVM workloads produced by various with respect to Java, and briefly discuss their implications.
