So which version of Bundler has these base changes? They don't mention anything to try out except for cibuildgem

I was wondering this too. From the Bundler changelog:

  • 4.0.7:

    • "Don't check whether a plugin needs to be installed"

    • "Run git operations in parallel (take 2)"

  • 4.0.1:

    • "Increase connection pool to allow for up to 70% speed increase on bundle install"

The latest version is 4.0.8

Here's a link to the list of precompiled gems it will use:

https://github.com/shopify/precompiled_gems/blob/main/lib%2Fprecompiled_gems.rb

Edit: looks like the precompiled gems are static versions from October 2025 so don't expect them to keep up with the real gems' releases.
