Fixing Threads in Ruby 1.8: A 2-10x Performance Boost
Joe Damato has been on a roll lately, first with a 6 line EventMachine fix that yielded impressive results, then a configure.in fix to give 30% more performance, and now by getting a 2-10x performance boost with a fix to Ruby 1.8's threading.
How much will this increase Gosu's performance??

Why don't you try it out on your computer and measure the performance? I think that is the best way to find out (and don't forget to share your results with others).
By the way, I haven't measured it yet, but I have noticed a impressive boost of performance by using ruby 1.9 instead of 1.8. I'd go with that and forget ruby 1.8 :)
