Sounds like this one's a topic for the RubyGarden wiki.
I'm happily using wxWindows and GNOME2 with Ruby. Portability to Windows
and MacOS both doesn't leave you many options, though.
FXRuby is on my to-play-with list, but I've not had time yet.
Masao Mutoh and other's work on GTK2/GNOME2 is really impressive. The
object models are actually somewhat merged, now, in the CVS. You can
implement GTK objects in Ruby.
As far as I know, the GTK bindings works under win32. With the Luna
theme installed, it looks XP-like, too, so it merges well with the
system.
Speed is great, with the exception of a heavily loaded GtkTreeView, but
that's GTK and my implementation's fault, I think.
Enjoy.
