We still encountered a gc_sweep in our use of Ruby 1.8 on Linux (v8).

Yes, there are several (Ruby) threads working during this gc_sweep.

I don't think I ever have. I know what you mean. I tend to want to scope things up when using irb; that bites me all the time. However, @ resolves ambiguity: If we don't have @, then: class Foo a = "blah" def bar a = 1 + 1 end end What would "a" be? In this trivial case, it may not be a problem. But in a large class, with a lot of methods, the odds of overriding some instance variable has a great potential to introduce bugs. Also, how would you declare an instance variable in a method? def Foo def bar a = "Foo" # I want "a" to be an instance variable b = "Bar" # I don't want "b" to be an instance variable end end --- SER
