Rspec 2.6 works on the macruby nightly builds.
Load times are partly due to rubygems being very slow on MacRuby and rspec
being split into 4 gems (plus one other external gem).
The other problem is that you have to JIT all the code at run time; you should
be able to cut the load time in half by compiling rspec and its dependencies,
but that has a couple of caveats right now, you can read more about it in the
README for my rubygems plugin:
https://github.com/ferrous26/rubygems-compile
Also, there are a couple of issues in the macruby trac related to slow gem
loading time. You may wish to add a comment there about rspec.
