Hello all.
Pleased to announce another update of the faster_require gem, which
makes loading ruby scripts far far faster in windows.

Halve your rails apps’ load/startup time!

Enjoy.

Have you had a chance to see how https://gist.github.com/950154
interacts with faster_require on Windows?

I haven’t tried it, but my guess is that it brings it in parity with
1.8.7 performance speedups.
Currently with 1.8.x it’s like a 75% speedup, with 1.9.2 it’s like a
100% speedup, so probably around there.

any preference? whatever you want it to be… :slight_smile:

Given that Ruby appears to be switching to the BSD License with version
1.9.3, I think that’s probably an appropriate choice. If you basically
mean that anybody should be able to use it under whatever license they
like, though, a public domain declaration might be a good idea – though
there are issues with the public domain in some jurisdictions (e.g.,
France).

Switched it to BSD.
Good idea!

Thanks! Now, if I write an article about it for TechRepublic, I’ll know
what license to mention.
