Did some initial speed tests with YARV 0.4.0 and ActiveRecord  
1.13.2rubygem.

A select of 1000 records and print out to screen with YARV actually  
proved  
slower then ruby.

ruby: 2.1 seconds  
yarv: 3.2 seconds

In my recursion tests yarv is much faster.

I’m surprised that YARV is even ready to run ActiveRecord yet. Did you  
try running the unit tests?

You probably should post this to the YARV mailing list.
