Artichoke – A Ruby made with Rust

I’m aware.

It also lacks compatibility with a lot of important C gems (not only or even predominantly because of the lack of a GIL, of course), which I’m pointing out has always impacted its adoption.

Then you should also be aware that it runs most of them via Sulong.

That’s Truffle, not JRuby. There was a plan several years ago to move Sulong support into JRuby based on trialing it in Truffle; it appears to have made no progress since 2016.

JRuby has no support for C extensions.

TruffleRuby supports C extensions, and has no GIL for Ruby code.
