CRuby JIT 1: MJIT
CRuby JIT 2: YJIT
Current CRuby JITs speed.yjit.org
Current CRuby JITs speed.yjit.org
Current CRuby JITs • YJIT • Available since Ruby 3.1
• --jit or --yjit • MJIT • Available since Ruby 2.6 • --mjit
Current CRuby JITs • YJIT • Ruby 3.1: x86_64 only,
no code GC, written in C • Ruby 3.2: arm64 support, (hopefully) code GC, written in Rust • MJIT • Ruby 3.1: Stable-ish, portable, native threads, written in C • Ruby 3.2: Experimental, fork + SIGCHLD, written in Ruby
MJIT in Ruby
None
None
mjit.rb: Secret "standard library" in Ruby 3.2 • mjit.rb •
Even more powerful than TracePoint • You can monkey-patch CRuby JIT • No compatibility guarantee • Every module is private, so const_get is required
BYOJ: Bring Your Own JIT
BYOJ: Bring Your Own JIT • Load and pause MJIT
with --mjit=pause • Define RubyVM::MJIT.compile • Use RubyVM::MJIT.const_get(:C) to hack RubyVM • Call RubyVM::MJIT.resume to start JIT With Ruby 3.2:
YJIT-style JIT • Monkey-patch RubyVM::MJIT.compile
MJIT-style JIT • Monkey-patch RubyVM::MJIT::Compiler.compile
MJIT-style JIT
Everyone is writing CRuby JIT
Benchmarking Ruby JIT
yjit-bench
yjit-bench • yjit-bench has three kinds of benchmarks: 1. Headlining
Benchmarks 2. Other Benchmarks 3. Micro Benchmarks
1. Headlining benchmarks • activerecord • hexapdf • liquid-render •
mail • psych-load • railsbench ✉
2. Other Benchmarks • binarytrees, fankuchredux, nbody • chunky_png •
erubi, erubi_rails • lee • optcarrot • rubykon
3. Micro Benchmarks • 30k_ifelse, 30k_methods • cfunc_itself, str_concat •
fib • getivar, setivar • keyword_args • respond_to
None
Benchmark Your Own JIT • ./run_benchmarks.rb -e “/path/to/ruby --any-option” •
Pass multiple -e options to compare different JITs
Towards Ruby 4 JIT
My wish on Ruby 4 JIT • I want Ruby
4 to be as fast as Java or JavaScript • Ruby 4's performance should be a reason to leave Python
None
More Concrete Examples
None
None
None
Ruby 4 Canary • true is mov-ed (immediate) • No
opt_* VM instruction • Constant folding • Ruby / C method inlining
Ruby 4 Canary’ • Single branch instruction to access @one
• Single register to access two • No heap allocation • No stack frame
None
None
Ruby 4 Canary 2 • 5000050000 is mov-ed (immediate) •
Ruby -> C -> Ruby inlining
How can we get there?

3. Method calls • Code locality • Method inlining: C
㱻 Ruby • Pass arguments with native ABI • Deoptimization on redefinition or interruption (or TracePoint)
4. Garbage collection

4. Garbage collection
Next Steps • We still have a lot of rooms
for improvements on yjit-bench • More cross-instruction optimizations • More method inlining over Ruby and C
Conclusion • Build your own JIT with Ruby 3.2 •
Benchmark your JIT with yjit-bench
