I’m giving a talk at the Manchester Java Community next Thursday (26th of 
March) at Madlab about JRuby+Truffle, which may be of interest to members of 
NWRUG.

http://www.meetup.com/ManchesterUK-Java-Community/events/220554779/

JRuby+Truffle is a high performance implementation of Ruby using a new Java JIT 
compiler called Graal. It supports almost all of the Ruby language, the 
majority of the core library and we can demonstrate it running real-world code 
at more than 10x the speed of any other Ruby implementation.

It also has revolutionary support for C extensions via a high performance C 
interpreter, novel zero-overhead debugging functionality, and many more 
fascinating features.

The talk is more specifically about the new JIT compiler, but I will use Ruby 
as my running example.

There won’t be any factory-factories and you don’t need to know Java to 
understand what we’re doing!
