Subject: Re: OMG, why are there so many Strings in ObjectSpace!

JRuby master for your little script with ObjectSpace on:

~/projects/jruby ➔ jruby -X+O c.rb
   210 String
   152 Class
    16 Module
     5 Float
     4 Array
     3 Hash
     3 IO
     2 Object
     1 Binding
     1 Thread
     1 ThreadGroup

Note that even with it on we don't track a lot of transient objects in
ObjectSpace, so there's potentially others floating around not shown
here.
