"summary"=>"\n
We are pleased to announce the release of Ruby 3.3.0-preview3. Ruby 3.3 adds a new parser named Prism, uses Lrama as a parser generator, adds a new pure-Ruby JIT compiler named RJIT, and many performance improvements especially YJIT.
\n\nPrism
\n\n- \n
- Introduced the Prism parser as a default gem\n
- \n
- Prism is a portable, error tolerant, and maintainable recursive descent parser for the Ruby language \n
\n - Prism is production ready and actively maintained, you can use it in place of Ripper\n
- \n
- There is extensive documentation on how to use Prism \n
- Prism is both a C library that will be used internally by CRuby and a Ruby gem that can be used by any tooling which needs to parse Ruby code \n
- Notable methods in the Prism API are:\n
- \n
Prism.parse(source)
which returns the AST as part of a ParseResult \n Prism.dump(source)
which returns the serialized AST as a String \n Prism.parse_comments(source)
which returns the comments \n
\n
\n - You can make pull requests or issues directly on the Prism repository if you are interested in contributing \n
Use Lrama instead of Bison
\n\n- \n
- Replace Bison with Lrama LALR parser generator Feature #19637\n
- \n
- If you have interest, please see The future vision of Ruby Parser \n
- Lrama internal parser is replaced with LR parser generated by Racc for maintainability \n
- Parameterizing Rules
(?, *, +)
are supported, it will be used in Ruby parse.y \n
\n
RJIT
\n\n- \n
- Introduced a pure-Ruby JIT compiler RJIT and replaced MJIT.\n
- \n
- RJIT supports only x86-64 architecture on Unix platforms. \n
- Unlike MJIT, it doesn’t require a C compiler at runtime. \n
\n - RJIT exists only for experimental purposes.\n
- \n
- You should keep using YJIT in production. \n
\n - If you are interested in developing JIT for Ruby, please check out k0kubun’s presentation on Day 3 of RubyKaigi. \n
YJIT
\n\n- \n
- Major performance improvements over 3.2\n
- \n
- Support for splat and rest arguments has been improved. \n
- Registers are allocated for stack operations of the virtual machine. \n
- More calls with optional arguments are compiled. \n
- Exception handlers are also compiled. \n
- Instance variables no longer exit to the interpreter\nwith megamorphic object shapes. \n
- Unsupported call types no longer exit to the interpreter. \n
Integer#!=
,String#!=
,Kernel#block_given?
,Kernel#is_a?
,\nKernel#instance_of?
,Module#===
are specially optimized. \n - Now more than 3x faster than the interpreter on optcarrot! \n
\n - Significantly improved memory usage over 3.2\n
- \n
- Metadata for compiled code uses a lot less memory. \n
- Generate more compact code on ARM64 \n
\n - Compilation speed is now slightly faster than 3.2. \n
- Add
RubyVM::YJIT.enable
that can enable YJIT at run-time\n- \n
- You can start YJIT without modifying command-line arguments or environment variables. \n
- This can also be used to enable YJIT only once your application is\ndone booting.
--yjit-disable
can be used if you want to use other\nYJIT options while disabling YJIT at boot. \n
\n - Option to disable code GC and treat
--yjit-exec-mem-size
as a hard limit\n- \n
- Can produce better copy-on-write behavior on servers using unicorn and forking \n
\n ratio_in_yjit
stat produced by--yjit-stats
is now available in release builds,\na special stats or dev build is no longer required to access most stats. \n - Exit tracing option now supports sampling\n
- \n
--trace-exits-sample-rate=N
\n
\n --yjit-perf
is added to facilitate profiling with Linux perf. \n - More thorough testing and multiple bug fixes \n
M:N thread scheduler
\n\n- \n
- M:N thread scheduler was introduced. [Feature #19842]\n
- \n
- M Ruby threads are managed by N native threads (OS threads) so the thread creation and management cost are reduced. \n
- It can break C-extension compatibility so that M:N thread scheduler is disabled on the main Ractor by default.\n
- \n
RUBY_MN_THREADS=1
environment variable enables M:N threads on the main Ractor. \n - M:N threads are enabled on non-main Ractors. \n
\n RUBY_MAX_CPU=n
environment variable sets maximum number ofN
(maximum number of native threads). The default value is 8.\n- \n
- Since only one Ruby thread per Ractor can run at the same time, the number of native threads will be used, which is the smaller of the number specified in
RUBY_MAX_CPU
and the number of running Ractors. So that single Ractor applications (most of applications) will use 1 native thread. \n - To support blocking operations, more than
N
native threads can be used. \n
\n - Since only one Ruby thread per Ractor can run at the same time, the number of native threads will be used, which is the smaller of the number specified in
\n
Other Notable New Features
\n\nLanguage
\n\nPerformance improvements
\n\n- \n
defined?(@ivar)
is optimized with Object Shapes. \n - Name resolution such as
Socket.getaddrinfo
can now be interrupted (in environments where pthreads are available). Feature #19965\n- \n
- For this purpose, a pthread is now created whenever calling getaddrinfo or getnameinfo. This incurs some overhead in name resolution (about 2.5x in our experiments). We do not expect the name resolution overhead to be a problem for most applications, but if you observe such, or if you see unexpected affects that you believe are due to this change, please report them. \n
\n - Environment variable
RUBY_GC_HEAP_REMEMBERED_WB_UNPROTECTED_OBJECTS_LIMIT_RATIO
has been added. Feature #19571 \n - Children of old objects are no longer immediately promoted to the old generation in the garbage collector. Feature #19678 \n
- Support for weak references has been added to the garbage collector. Feature #19783 \n
Other notable changes since 3.2
\n\nIRB
\n\nIRB has received several enhancements, including but not limited to:
\n\n- \n
- Advanced
irb:rdbg
integration that provides an equivalent debugging experience topry-byebug
(doc). \n - Pager support for
ls
,show_source
andshow_cmds
commands. \n - More accurate and helpful information provided by the
ls
andshow_source
commands. \n - Experimental autocompletion using type analysis (doc). \n
- It is now possible to change the font color and font style in the completion dialog by a newly introduced class Reline::Face (doc) \n
In addition, IRB has also undergone extensive refactoring and received dozens of bug fixes to facilitate easier future enhancements.
