Introduction

RubyBench was born out from
Sam Saffron's call for a long running Ruby benchmark.

Benchmark Scripts

Ruby Scripts: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/tree/trunk/benchmark

Discourse Scripts: https://github.com/discourse/discourse/tree/master/script

The scripts are executed in a bare metal server using Docker containers to ensure
consistent results. To view how the scripts are executed, head over to
https://github.com/ruby-bench/ruby-bench-docker.

Hardware

Our current bare metal server is sponsored by the team over at
RubyTune.com.

All benchmarks are run on a bare metal server in order to achieve
consistent and repeatable results. We will not publish CPU results gathered
on virtual hosts where we can not control our CPU allocation. The only results
published are run on production level bare metal servers.

The bare metal server is purchased from
Hetzner Online
and has the following configurations:
