Hi All, I'm looking at better optimizing ruby 1.8 and seemingly the way to do that is to drop support for libpthread. Ruby 1.8 uses green threads and doesn't actually leverage kernel threads so this seems like an easy choice...unfortunately, turning off the support can impact libraries such a tcl/tk.
So the question is: Is anyone using libraries such as tcl/tk from ruby (eg: CSWruby18-tk)? Personally, I'm happy to drop it in order to gain better performance but I'd rather not do so if sites are depending on it. Let me know. (Also, I've picked up ruby 1.9 again and will hopefully have something useful in the near future.)
