Lots of people are invested in the "Ruby is slow (but I don't care)" meme. Benchmarks establish that Ruby is just about the slowest serious language out there. Enthusiasts counter that Ruby is fast enough for most tasks, that programmer productivity is more important than processor productivity, and that there is nothing intrinsically slow...

Recently, Dan Shechter sent me a code sample that illustrates a certain peculiarity of the .NET garbage collector. The sample application is fairly simple; it manipulates an array and displays the total memory size. One important detail we should pay attention to is that a garbage collection is forced when "DisplayMemory()" calls...

One of the knocks against Antonio's Ruby Performance Shootout is that it uses a synthetic set of tests (the one's Ko1 wrote to exercise the parts of YARV he'd already done some optimization on). In an effort to get a 'more real' set of numbers (at least for me), I decided to use my LogWatchR tool to do some benchmarking.

Generally it's easy to open a file inside a folder. But when it comes to a web application (.war) file, the common method does not cater for all the server versions. Using a classloader is the easiest way.
