Ruby 3.3.0-preview3 Released

We are pleased to announce the release of Ruby 3.3.0-preview3. Ruby 3.3 adds a new parser named Prism, uses Lrama as a parser generator, adds a new pure-Ruby JIT compiler named RJIT, and many performance improvements especially YJIT.

Prism


Introduced the Prism parser as a default gem

Prism is a portable, error tolerant, and maintainable recursive descent parser for the Ruby language


Prism is production ready and actively maintained, you can use it in place of Ripper

There is extensive documentation on how to use Prism
Prism is both a C library that will be used internally by CRuby and a Ruby gem that can be used by any tooling which needs to parse Ruby code
Notable methods in the Prism API are:

Prism.parse(source) which returns the AST as part of a ParseResult
Prism.dump(source, filepath) which returns the serialized AST as a String
Prism.parse_comments(source) which returns the comments




You can make pull requests or issues directly on the Prism repository if you are interested in contributing


Use Lrama instead of Bison


Replace Bison with Lrama LALR parser generator Feature #19637

If you have interest, please see The future vision of Ruby Parser
Lrama internal parser is replaced with LR parser generated by Racc for maintainability
Parameterizing Rules (?, *, +) are supported, it will be used in Ruby parse.y




RJIT


Introduced a pure-Ruby JIT compiler RJIT and replaced MJIT.

RJIT supports only x86-64 architecture on Unix platforms.
Unlike MJIT, it doesn’t require a C compiler at runtime.


RJIT exists only for experimental purposes.

You should keep using YJIT in production.


If you are interested in developing JIT for Ruby, please check out k0kubun’s presentation on Day 3 of RubyKaigi.


YJIT


Major performance improvements over 3.2

Support for splat and rest arguments has been improved.
Registers are allocated for stack operations of the virtual machine.
More calls with optional arguments are compiled.
Exception handlers are also compiled.
Instance variables no longer exit to the interpreter
with megamorphic object shapes.
Unsupported call types no longer exit to the interpreter.
Integer#!=, String#!=, Kernel#block_given?, Kernel#is_a?,
Kernel#instance_of?, Module#=== are specially optimized.
Now more than 3x faster than the interpreter on optcarrot!


Significantly improved memory usage over 3.2

Metadata for compiled code uses a lot less memory.
Generate more compact code on ARM64


Compilation speed is now slightly faster than 3.2.
Add RubyVM::YJIT.enable that can enable YJIT at run-time

You can start YJIT without modifying command-line arguments or environment variables.
This can also be used to enable YJIT only once your application is
done booting. --yjit-disable can be used if you want to use other
YJIT options while disabling YJIT at boot.


Option to disable code GC and treat --yjit-exec-mem-size as a hard limit

Can produce better copy-on-write behavior on servers using unicorn and forking


ratio_in_yjit stat produced by --yjit-stats is now avaiable in release builds,
a special stats or dev build is no longer required to access most stats.
Exit tracing option now supports sampling

--trace-exits-sample-rate=N


--yjit-perf is added to facilitate profiling with Linux perf.
More thorough testing and multiple bug fixes


M:N thread scheduler


M:N thread scheduler was introduced. [Feature #19842]

M Ruby threads are managed by N native threads (OS threads) so the thread creation and management cost are reduced.
It can break C-extension compatibility so that M:N thread scheduler is disabled on the main Ractor by default.

RUBY_MN_THREADS=1 environment variable enables M:N threads on the main Ractor.
M:N threads are enabled on non-main Ractors.


RUBY_MAX_CPU=n environment variable sets maximum number of N (maximum number of native threads). The default value is 8.

Since only one Ruby thread per Ractor can run at the same time, the number of native threads will be used, which is the smaller of the number specified in RUBY_MAX_CPU and the number of running Ractors. So that single Ractor applications (most of applications) will use 1 native thread.
To support blocking operations, more than N native threads can be used.






Other Notable New Features

Language

Performance improvements


defined?(@ivar) is optimized with Object Shapes.
Name resolution such as Socket.getaddrinfo can now be interrupted (in environments where pthreads are available). Feature #19965

For this purpose, a pthread is now created whenever calling getaddrinfo or getnameinfo. This incurs some overhead in name resolution (about 2.5x in our experiments). We do not expect the name resolution overhead to be a problem for most applications, but if you observe such, or if you see unexpected affects that you believe are due to this change, please report them.


Environment variable RUBY_GC_HEAP_REMEMBERED_WB_UNPROTECTED_OBJECTS_LIMIT_RATIO has been added. Feature #19571
Children of old objects are no longer immedately promoted to the old generation in the garbage collector. Feature #19678
Support for weak references has been added to the garbage collector. Feature #19783


Other notable changes since 3.2

IRB

IRB has received several enhancements, including but not limited to:


Advanced irb:rdbg integration that provides an equivalent debugging experience to pry-byebug (doc).
Pager support for ls, show_source and show_cmds commands.
More accurate and helpful information provided by the ls and show_source commands.
Experimental autocompletion using type analysis (doc).
It is now possible to change the font color and font style in the completion dialog by a newly introduced class Reline::Face (doc)


In addition, IRB has also undergone extensive refactoring and received dozens of bug fixes to facilitate easier future enhancements.

Compatibility issues

Note: Excluding feature bug fixes.

Removed constants

The following deprecated constants are removed.

Removed methods

The following deprecated methods are removed.

Removed environment variables

The following deprecated methods are removed.


Environment variable RUBY_GC_HEAP_INIT_SLOTS has been deprecated and is a no-op. Please use environment variables RUBY_GC_HEAP_{0,1,2,3,4}_INIT_SLOTS instead. Feature #19785


Stdlib compatibility issues

ext/readline is retired


We have reline that is pure Ruby implementation compatible with ext/readline API. We rely on reline in the future. If you need to use ext/readline, you can install ext/readline via rubygems.org with gem install readline-ext.
We no longer need to install libraries like libreadline or libedit.

What is Ruby

Ruby was first developed by Matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) in 1993,
and is now developed as Open Source. It runs on multiple platforms
and is used all over the world especially for web development.
