From: "M. Edward (Ed) Borasky" Date: 2007-07-26T00:48:27+09:00 Subject: Interesting research for Ruby implementors I just discovered this paper today: http://domino.research.ibm.com/comm/research_people.nsf/pages/hirzel.index.html/$FILE/sigmetrics07-layouts.pdf "Data Layouts for Object-Oriented Programs". Interesting reading for those of you who are implementing Ruby -- I'd think the jRuby team would be especially interested, since most of the results were with IBM's Java Virtual Machine.
