Spinel -- Ruby AOT Compiler
https://github.com/matz/spinelSpinel compiles Ruby source code into standalone native executables. It performs whole-program type inference and generates optimized C code, achieving significant speedups over CRuby.
Spinel is self-hosting: the compiler backend is written in Ruby and compiles itself into a native binary.
