I think the reason they only got 25% gain is because they already used Async IO with Ruby eventmachine. Another reason might be, that their workload is IO-boun

I think the reason they only got 25% gain is because they already used Async IO with Ruby eventmachine. Another reason might be, that their workload is IO-bounded, so faster VM like V8 doesn't help.

If the initial version was IO-bound wouldn't they get a 0% gain from re-writing?

  If my program reads a file one byte at a time, and it's IO-bound, can I improve performance by re-writing?

    Then it's not really IO-bound is it? It's stupidity-bound. Once you re-write it properly then it'll be IO-bound.
