Rails on JRuby was a tenable proposition last I looked. Been a while though.

I believe TruffleRuby <https://github.com/oracle/truffleruby> is the state of the art for Ruby on the JVM, and <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33503622> says that Mastodon works on it, so that's one data point. I haven't worked up the emotional energy to try to get GitLab to run on it

JRuby is far behind CRuby, so there are a lot of gems that you can't use, also there are not too many companies investing in JRuby itself, IMHO CRuby it's a safer bet.

I was in a large org that did this for a while. It was extremely painful to be this far off the beaten path.

When you stay in the well trod C Ruby path, you benefit from the hordes of others who cleared the landlines before you. With JRuby, not so.

Still around but it's significantly slower than stock Ruby.
