Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ruby
The Ruby package is compiled with the --enable-pthreads option. This has been known to drastically slow down the interpreter by ~ 50%. The effect of this is that Ruby on Windows outperforms Ruby on Ubuntu. --enable-pthreads is generally not used within the Ruby community. http://antoniocangiano.com/2008/12/10/reflections-on-the-ruby-shootout/ ** Affects: ruby-defaults (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ruby is slow because of --enable-pthreads https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/307462 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
