Hi Mario, Welcome! I am sure that the sponsor of this mailing list and project (Apple) would love to hear that MacRuby pushed you to give up your Hackintosh for an official Apple machine ;) More seriously, after installing MacRuby, you will find a list of samples and examples in $ /Developer/Exam

Bonjour Louis-Philippe :) That's a cool micro-benchmark. I'm not sure if recursive arithmetic algorithms really represent the real world, but it's cool anyways. If you remove the startup times from the final number you should see better results for MacRuby. But I agree that the current MacRuby
