Re: Some benchmarks with MinGW, JRuby, MSVC...

From: Ezra Zygmuntowicz <ezmobius@...>

List: ruby-talk #321575
Benchmarking ruby on windows is fairly useless. MRI 1.8.* is known to  
be very slow on windows and harldy anyone deploys production apps to  
windows because of this. If you want your benches to be taken  
seriously you need to run them on linux, bsd or osx where ruby  
performs much better. Also make sure to compile ruby with --disable- 
pthreads for best perf.
