Yeah, that'll do it!

C extensions are a core part of Ruby. A big chunk of the std lib is implemented in C. You shouldn't be afraid of writing a tiny bit of C. Ruby and Python are scripting languages. They're literally designed for scripting another language.

The JIT for Ruby 3 is well underway, so in a bit it'll be a complete non-issue anyway.
