In combination with the rest of the RubyInstaller team, I'm very pleased to announce the release of RubyInstaller packages for Ruby 1.9.3-p327 As usual, installer and 7z packages are available at RubyInstaller website and RubyForge for download: [http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads](http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads) [http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group\_id=167&release\_id=47014](http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=167&release_id=47014) For verification, MD5 signatures of each file released are provided: 7669412cccb414b5a8015cf2301218f5 \*ruby-1.9.3-p327-doc-chm.7z 49084fc5ed4e276ad0e7aa13f40044ef \*ruby-1.9.3-p327-i386-mingw32.7z 4595debd29cf95df8ba9cea1ed2472fa \*rubyinstaller-1.9.3-p327.exe Installer is also digitally signed to avoid alterations and UAC warnings. You can read Ruby's own announcement here: [http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/401111](http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/401111) = What's new? Beyond what is covered by Ruby itself, we have our own set of improvements: \* Enhancements:   \* Upgraded Ruby 1.9.3 to patchlevel 327 \* Bugfixes:   \* Disable Japanese support until changes to #139 are made NOTES: Upgrade to this version is extremely recommended as contains security fixes. There is also a hidden reward in this version, just for Windows. Dare to guess what is it? > **···** > > -- > Luis Lavena > AREA 17 > - > Perfection in design is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, > but rather when there is nothing more to take away. > Antoine de Saint-Exupéry ---

Yes, #7158 was backported to Ruby 1.9.3. TheCodeShop (tcs) releases already include such optimizations (along others), so isn't fair compare against it 😉 But if you compare official releases of RubyInstaller: > Then I hope you notice the difference.

> I hoped that #7158 would boost everything even more than pretty old tcs > build ☹ It still takes ~7 seconds to `rake -T`. As I said before: it wouldn't. TheCodeShop included Fenix patches which are what got integrated in #7158. You're waiting for a miracle that is not possible. You need to reduce the number of File.expand\_path that you're doing in your Rakefiles, that will help. What #7158 does is improve require itself, not File.expand\_path. If File.expand\_path is done a lot, there is nothing that #7158 can do to help. > It takes about 20 though on previous versions.

From 20 seconds to 7 and you complain? oh dear, you're a really hard customer 😛 > Anyway, thank you for that nice surprise, at least it is now mainstream to > get yourself a faster Ruby 🙂 You're welcome I guess, I had a sense you're complaining about this ☹ > **···** > > On Sun, Nov 11, 2012 at 10:51 AM, Jarmo Pertman \ wrote: > -- > Luis Lavena > AREA 17 > - > Perfection in design is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, > but rather when there is nothing more to take away. > Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
