" summary

Rubinius claims to be Ruby for Ruby programmers by moving heavy lifting into Ruby: a self-hosted compiler in Ruby, a kernel written in Ruby, generational GC, stackless execution, precompiled files and built-in packaging. Codebase shows 25,000 lines of C (vs much larger C/Java/C# runtimes), community reports 57 committers with 17 having 20+ commits, spec failures dropping from ~1,100 to ~500, and better results on 24 of 31 microbenchmarks — a working VM with rapidly improving compatibility and speed.
