Ruby 3 is like 10x faster than it was in 1.8.7 when I started using it. That still doesn't make it a speed demon. But it does make it 'fast enough' for me.

- cutler 5y agoWith all this negativity about Ruby's speed it's easily forgotten that Ruby is as fast as Python for most tasks with the exception of some numeric libraries which are really just C extensions. They are both interpreted languages and that hasn't stopped Python from dominating the world of programming.
