@k0kubun.com talked about ZJIT, the next generation of YJIT for Ruby 3.5. He explained how to use it to improve Ruby’s speed in Ruby and Rails infrastructures.
ZJIT is available starting in Ruby 4.0! Please try it out on your test suite, maybe in a staging environment, and let us know how it goes!

I'm very honored to have received this year's RubyPrize from Matz's hands in Matsue last Thursday, recognizing my work on Ruby and its development tools.
