圣诞节的时候发布了Ruby 2.1，使用RGenGC，性能提升了5%到15%. 那么，新版的Ruby实现和JRuby、Rubinius相比又如何呢？
Posăceanu Marian做了一个性能测试，对比了cruby、jruby和rubinius.
Marian使用的是ApacheBench，2.3. 性能测试有更好的工具，例如siege。但是ApacheBench的优势是足够简单。
使用如下命令启动ApacheBench：
ab -n400 -c16 -T'application/json' http://localhost:3000/entries
cruby
# config/unicorn.rb
worker_processes Integer(ENV["WEB_CONCURRENCY"] || 3)
timeout 15
preload_app true
before_fork do |server, worker|
# et cetera
end
命令：
unicorn_rails -c config/unicorn.rb -p 3000
结果：
Concurrency Level: 16

Rubinius 2.2.3
# config/puma.rb

workers 1
preload_app!
on_worker_boot do
# et cetera
end
命令
puma -C config/puma.rb -b tcp://localhost:3000
结果

jruby
# config/puma.rb
threads 8,32
preload_app!
on_worker_boot do
ActiveSupport.on_load(:active_record) do
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection
end
end
命令：
puma -C config/puma.rb -b tcp://localhost:3000
注意需要替换Gem：
# gem 'pg'
gem 'activerecord-jdbcpostgresql-adapter'
结果：

结论
每个机器上的情况可能有所差异，在你自己的机器上运行上面的测试代码，结果会比较准确。
在多核机器上，jruby和rubinius的性能会有明显提升。
jruby 99.53 #################################
cruby 59.09 ###################
rubinius 42.63 ##############
可以看出，在性能上，JRuby具有明显优势。不过，使用JRuby的话，一些C库需要替换。好在现在大多数gem都支持JRuby了。
更新 感谢ShiningRay指出，jruby开启--server和invokedynamic性能会更好
