It's not clear to me if YJIT is enabled after the ENV variable was set OK I can test something i believe RubyVM::YJIT.enabled?

Matts-Workhorse:zen-api wilko$ railway shell
No service linked, skipping service variables              
Entering subshell with Railway variables available. Type 'exit' to exit.
bash-3.2$ irb
3.2.2 :001 > RubyVM::YJIT.enabled?
 => false 
3.2.2 :002 >

seems to not be enabled OK! I've fixed it !

Entering subshell with Railway variables available. Type 'exit' to exit.
bash-3.2$ RUBY_YJIT_ENABLE=1 irb
3.2.2 :001 > RubyVM::YJIT.enabled?
 => true

bash-3.2$ RUBY_YJIT_ENABLE=1 irb
3.2.2 :001 > RubyVM::YJIT.enabled?
 => true

I think the way to do this is configure the NIXPACKS_START_CMD with something like

RUBY_YJIT_ENABLE=1 rails s -e production

RUBY_YJIT_ENABLE=1 rails s -e production

yep, confirmed:

railway shell is a local shell on your computer, it is not a shell within your deployment

macwilkoOP•17mo ago

Thanks Brody

Brody•17mo ago

did you set this as a service variable?

macwilkoOP•17mo ago

There's one thing I'm gonna do Rails.logger.info RUBY_DESCRIPTION that will print out something to the effect of ruby 3.2.2 (2023-03-30 revision e51014f9c0) [arm64-darwin22 one sec I know YJIT is working fine on the workers but honestly don't know if it applied to the Web process

Brody•17mo ago

sounds good for context I have zero knowledge of ruby

macwilkoOP•17mo ago
