| | [AI summary] The article discusses optimizing the Ruby interpreter's performance by leveraging shared string optimizations in the `features_index_add` function. The key improvements include reducing memory allocations and system calls by using pointer-based substrings instead of Ruby object slicing, and eliminating unnecessary `ruby_strdup` calls by keeping strings alive via the `loaded_features_index_pool` array. This results in a 35% speedup for `require` and a 4% memory reduction in Rails boot processes.
