[Rubyinstaller-devel] 1.9 gem env is far slower than on 1.8?

FWIW, I've noticed my 1.9.1 gem commands are noticeably slower than my 1.8.6 commands.

Same thing when I'm run rspec.

For example, when running a spec for a patch to the treetop cmd line compiler I submitted, I was seeing ~20 secs on 1.9.1 vs ~12 secs on 1.8.6 on my Win test box.  While there were plenty of Kernel.system and Kernel.open calls, I was surprised at the delta.  Haven't tried it yet on my XUbuntu 9.04 system.
