Except for crystal-lang, which is compiled Ruby, more or less, and smokes all the above mentioned interpreters, no?

Crystal is magnificent in its typing and speed compared to Ruby, but it’s still a niche language (small ecosystem / lack of developers) and breaking changes happen all the time.

When it reaches 1.0 and becomes stable I’d like to work with it again. For small simple APIs raze was great.
