Subject: optimizing for speed - Array#each

I ran the profiler on my program and it said that 51% of the time is spent
in Array#each. Is there any way to speed this up (like using
Array#each_index perhaps)?

And is there a quicker way to do a .gsub if I'm using just strings and not a
regexp?

By the way, the program compares 2 databases and determines which records
have been inserted and deleted, and each database has about 15,000 records
to compare.
