We are pleased to announce the release of Ruby 2.2.0-preview1.
Ruby 2.2.0-preview1 is the first preview of Ruby 2.2.0.Many new features and improvements are included for the increasinglydiverse and expanding demands for Ruby.
For example, Symbol GC makes Symbols garbage collectable.This reduces memory usage of Symbols; because GC couldn’t collect Symbols beforeRuby 2.2. So Rails 5.0 will require Symbol GC. It will support only Ruby 2.2or later. (See Rails’ blog post for details.)
Also, new Incremental GC decreases pause time of garbage collection.It is helpful for running Rails applications.
Enjoy programming with Ruby 2.2.0-preview1!
