- vinceguidry 13y agoA C extension in Ruby can be nothing more than an algorithm implementation accepting strings or numbers and returning such. Where you need proficiency in C is when you're building something substantial in it. The problem with Node is, you have to load up a runtime. That can not only kill your performance gains, but actually make things slower.
