> One of the superpowers of MMTk is that it supports parallelism in the garbage collector. Unlike Ruby’s default garbage collector

Wow

sebiw•3mo ago
"Wow" as in "why doesn't Ruby have that already" or as in "parallelism will be great"? :-)
Thev00d00•3mo ago
Why not both :D
Lio•3mo ago
When we say "Ruby" doesn't have parallel GC we're really just talking about MRI cRuby.

Both the JRuby and TruffleRuby implemenations have had parellel GC for a very long time.

I think Peter Zhu work on cRuby has been brilliant here and is really appreciated.

pjmlp•3mo ago
As historical background information, MMTk was initially implemented in Java, and used on the JikesRVM VM, one of the very first bootstraped Java implementations.

https://www.jikesrvm.org/UserGuide/MMTk/index.html

Eventually they rewrote it in Rust,

https://www.mmtk.io/

Thus it is much more than the 5 years mentioned on the post, that only covers the rewrite.

It’s not even remotely close to the main point of the article but: I really like the Chris Seaton callout. I talked about this initiative with him the RubyConf before he passed.

Open Source contributors and maintainers feel that there is a constant pressure to be producing. That somehow our worth is somehow only as good as our recent patches. That note says to me: that’s not the case. That even after the contributions stop, or we do, that our efforts and impacts are felt and remembered.

>I really like the Chris Seaton callout

I miss him. And I really hope someday TruffleRuby will succeed and become mainstream or at least 2nd only to Cruby.

schneems•3mo ago
I miss him too. We knew each other online for some time, but that was the first time I ever met him in person. I came back and couldn’t stop talking about him to my wife when she asked how the conf went. Truly an inspiring experience.

I hope truffle ruby does well, too. But even if it doesn’t, he’s still made an impact on me, and on the community. I told him “thank you” to his face when we met. I also wish I could have also somehow let him know my thanks and appreciation was unconditional.
