FYI: with Akira (Matsuda-san), we compare performance of require and
require_relative to load thousands of files.

Without Bundler, require_relative is good performance.
However, with Bundler, require_relative does not help so much.
Maybe most of Ruby user == Rails programmer use Bundler.

So we can concentrate to discuss about "which is a good design?".
