There's no code by myself yet.  Masato Kiyama and his friend told me
that they implemented their own implementation of Ruby VM (without
parser), and it ran 3 times faster than the current implementation in
some cases.  It's not full implementation.

You can contact Masato at <masato at csys.ce.hiroshima-cu.ac.jp>, but
don't bother him too much.  He seems pretty busy.
