I'm not sure what she was thinking of, but maybe either of following:

  * making extensions for Ruby is easy, so you can reimplement the
    bottleneck into extension library later.

  * experimental Ruby-to-C translator and JIT compiler of x86 are
    available, you can increase execution speed by using them.

  * she was thinking of something else.
