Rev, Revactor, Reia
summary
History and demos of three projects: the libev-backed event library coolio (rev) that replaces EventMachine and already runs massive web spiders, HDB push servers and chat systems on MRI 1.8.6+ YARV and Rubinius; the actor layer Revactor that uses Ruby fibers for actor-style concurrency and integrates with Rainbows for multi-core web servers; and the Erlang-flavored language Reia with immutable objects and gen_server semantics that after a rewrite becomes over nine thousand times faster.
