Hello guys,
This is the first time I am working with threads and so far it gave me a
good result in the speed of my code, using Ruby 1.8.6 in the native Mac OS
X distribution. By I read in the book "The Ruby Programming language" that
the threads in the standard "C" Ruby 1.8.6 are not real OS threads and
they all share the same main Ruby thread. I have read also that JRuby
implements real OS threads.
My code triggers more than 200 threads each of them with one private
connection to a MySQL database.
Would it be a real advantage to use JRuby in this scenario?
Thanks,
Guillermo
