That improvement sounds rather impressive.
Hey, by the way, those "rest args" are used a lot in all the Rails framework
(RHTML heper methods for instance), so is there also a big performance win
to hope when those methods will compile too?

Hmm...I had not planned on trying to get rest args compiling before 1.0,
but if that's one of the primary performance issues for rdoc, it would
raise the priority. Of course, if it's a performance issue for
interpreted mode too, then there's probably something we can do there.

Do keep us updated, and I'll take another look at rest args and see how
much effort would be required to compile them.
