Just wait for the official announcement that Laurent mentioned. I'm
sure he will explain everything in details. Not using YARV means that
the new VM built on top of core foundation, can use various tips to
improve the perfs.

Technically, the answer should be yes. I think you can run any chunk
of binary code linked against static libraries. Code signing can be
taken care of by the codesign command-line tool and you can drag
properly signed apps into iTunes for installation onto the iPhone.
Tethered (on the iPhone) debugging would not be possible without
reverse-engineering the usbmuxd protocol, unless you manage to use
gdb to debug Ruby code.
