I've reduced the number of classes RubyGems loads at startup. No longer does require 'rubygems' load anything that won't be used by the custom require or the gem methods. On my platform I've got ruby using up 1.30M virgin, 3.23M after require 'rubygems', and 3.23M after the suggested GC.start. -- Poor workers blame their tools. Good workers build better tools.
