The JRuby community is pleased to announce the release of JRuby 1.3.0
Homepage: http://www.jruby.org/
Download: http://dist.codehaus.org/jruby/
The fixes in this release are primarily obvious compatibility problems and
performance enhancements. Our goal is to put out point releases more
frequently for the next several months (about 3-4 weeks a release). We want
a more rapid release cycle to better address issues brought up by users of
JRuby.
Highlights:
- Fixes so that JRuby runs in restricted environments better like GAE/J
- Accessing primitive Java arrays are about 10x faster
- timeout.rb is now ~40% faster
- Method cache performance improvements
- irb works in --1.9 mode now
- Additional Miscellaneous 1.9 fixes
- rubygems 1.3.3, rake 0.8.7, and rspec 1.2.6 upgrades
- 66 bugs fixed since 1.2.0
