I read your benchmarks on Ruby, but you didn't list the implementation or version of Ruby you used.

I'd guess you used MRI 1.8.X.

I decided to benchmark other versions(and implementations) of Ruby.

= jruby 1.6.4 (7.3 seconds)

      user     system      total        real
  7.388000   0.000000   7.388000 (  7.349000)

= Rubinius 1.2.4 (Little under 6 seconds)

   user     system      total        real
  5.940015   0.006878   5.946893 (  5.842485)

= CRuby 1.9.2 (38 seconds)

      user     system      total        real
 38.250000   0.090000  38.340000 ( 38.376857)

= CRuby 1.8.7 (Little under 137 seconds)

      user     system      total        real
  136.960000   0.240000 137.200000 (137.437748)

Thanks!
