Subject: Major performance degradation on trunk

Hi,

Today's revision (r16615) brings Ruby, built from trunk, to a crawl
during 'require' for me on Linux.

This snippet:
p Time.now
100.times {require 'stringio'}
p Time.now

executes for FIFTEEN SECONDS.

Previous revision is OK.

Thanks,
  --Vladimir
