It was odd to read "Ok, let’s leave trolling aside" in the middle of the article.<p>Do we really have to behave like 5 year old kids?

Any decent language runtime with lightweight threads will have the same effect...

This made my brain hurt. Terrible article.<p>&#62; Lots of rubyists defends this aproach with arguments that GIL makes single threaded apps faster and makes writing of the multi-threaded apps easier. You know what… that’s total bullshit.<p>No, it's not. It's a fact.<p>Article also confounds parallelism and concurrency all over the place.

Being 8x faster than a GIL'd Ruby is not exactly going to win you any awards.
