Ruby Batteries Included
summary
A concrete checklist of code and results: the app audit finds 135 gems and swaps many for stdlib pieces — Set, Enumerable/Enumerator, SimpleDelegator/Forwardable, SecureRandom — and builds a tiny GServer TCP server that returns hex or UUIDs, shells out to a Rust binary via spawn, sanitizes with Shellwords, and persists with PStore. Benchmark and VM compile flags enable tail-call optimization to make a recursive fib fast, Fiddle calls C math directly, WeakRef reduces memory, and Minitest runs tests with no extra gems.
