It is indeed faster than the old mswin version, but if I remember
correctly, still far slower than linux versions (as a note jruby is
also far slower on windows than on Linux--I think).
You could run some benchmarks from the ruby benchmark suite if you'd
like.  andLinux might make for a somewhat reasonable comparison.
