@dave "and please DO NOT refer "The Computer Language Benchmarks Game" since it is absolutely UNFAIR, for example some python programs are written using C extensions while ruby ones are written in pure-ruby … all those including itertools or multiprocessing are also unfair"

Dave – contribute a Ruby program that uses GMP.

@darkhelmet Which is why Carl said: "Before continuing, a disclaimer: do not take these tips and refactor your code ad-hoc. Take everything with a grain of salt and perform your own measurements to determine which pieces of your app are slow. Before making any performance optimizations, get set up with a profiling tool, like RubyProf, New Relic, Scout, etc. You always want to know where the most significant bottlenecks are for you, and focus your efforts there first."

Of course none of this matters unless you benchmark and use performance tools first to find out where the problems are.

@carllerche, @wycats Thank you both for your replies…

Any resources or suggestions where I can get more information on rail's or ruby's methodology for this? As far as the app architecture or design is concerned…
