Ah, thanks. It's been a while since I've used Ruby seriously. Still not quite sure why "Matz's ruby" is separate on the Benchmark Game rankings, while all other languages are grouped based on the best implementation of the language. Anyhow, that's pretty much irrelevant to my overall point.

Thanks for the kind words, not sure why it's getting downvoted other than that I called someone out on their lazy dismissal. But I wouldn't worry about it too much, I've been on HN and Reddit for long enough to not care too much about downvotes.
