Ruby 2.6.0-preview1 Released
Don't hold your breath:<p>> MJIT takes a block of ruby’s YARV bytecode and converts it into what is basically an inlined version of the C code it would have run when interpreting it.<p>> In some ways, this is the same as what other JITs do: they compile bytecode into machine code at runtime. I don’t know of another JIT which so directly shells out to an off-the-shelf C compiler.<p>This will never scale out (embedded?) and has tons of security issues.<p>The only high grade JIT solution anywhere available for a dynamically typed language is LuaJIT - I don't know of the social implications of all the involved here why this solution never took of and found more widespread use in other languages like Ruby or Python
