Has anyone tried having Discourse on the truffleruby?
Does it make sense to look in this direction?

Interesting. Why did they decide to fork not contribute I wonder?

@merefield Truffleruby is an implementation of Ruby for GraalVM by Oracle guys. Good performance and interoperability with other languages on GraalVM.
It’s not a fork.
I have some experience with Rails on Truffleruby and want to check Discourse next week.

Sounds fascinating. Would you expect to be able to run the existing Discourse codebase without significant changes? What kind of changes might be needed?

Short answer: No, it currently doesn’t work on TruffleRuby.

@gerhard Thanks for the link, It will be easier for me to understand existing issues.

The current blocker is mini_racer, see https://github.com/oracle/truffleruby/issues/1827
That said, at least all gems install on TruffleRuby, we test that in CI (for some slightly older Discourse).

不幸的是，Mastodon 而不是 Discourse 将是第一个在 TruffleRuby 上运行的

@volanar 是的——我现在没有足够的时间来回答这个问题——白天工作很忙。

@eregon 在这里，我不知道有任何阻碍 truffle 的问题，我们去年合并了 mini racer 的修复程序。

Brandon 一年前让 Discourse 运行起来了：

我记得有一个问题是一些 gem 依赖于 Hash 的线程安全，我们有一个通用的解决方案，但尚未在 TruffleRuby 中合并/集成。另一方面，直接并发使用 Hash 很少是正确的，它通常会以更难找到的方式隐藏并发错误。所以，修复依赖于此的 gem 可能更好，但这需要时间。
我们需要对性能进行基准测试，为了使其有意义/具有代表性，我们应该进行多线程基准测试。这需要 A way to mark C extensions as thread-safe, so they can be executed in parallel · Issue #2136 · truffleruby/truffleruby · GitHub

我希望它能很快得到解决 
您认为使用 truffleruby 后 discourse 的性能指标（TTFB、整体性能等）会有多大改善？

布兰登在这个服务器上吗？
@Matthias_Schuster 快速搜索一下，可以在 Meta 上找到 https://meta.discourse.org/u/bjfish。
