When I try to script/generate something I have to wait above 2 minutes befor I get result. Is there some way to fix this? I have Intel Core 2 Duo 6420 with 2GB RAM.
On my Slackware Duron 800 MHz it takes about 45 sec...
Can you say anything about your installation? There are various routes to a working system on Windows, and I don't know how many have been tested on Vista.
There is Instant Rails, which I've never used, don't know much about.
There is the "one click" Windows installer for ruby, then grab rubygems and `gem install rails -y`.
There is building Ruby from scratch with a native compiler, of which there are several choices, leading to further choices in compiler options....
Then there are solutions based on Cygwin and other Unix emulations on Windows, things like MingW.
Have you examined it with the ruby profiler at all, to see where it is slow?
So more information may help people give you clues as to the problem, and if you don't get any useful replies, then you may find rebuilding Rails some other way is worth trying.
You may need to defragment your disk as well. Certainly on XP that has helped me.
yes if you run ruby on windows . but so faster on linux. i’m working on ubuntu.
Hi,
Instant Rails is a good choose, I tested instance Rails on a XP computer. Should be working on Vista without problems.
But I’m using Linux , OpenSuse 10.2 , the performance is much better. Any kind of server is running better on a Linux system than on a Window system.

I was having some speed issues on Win XP myself. I installed an Ubuntu vm and it seems twice as fast. I don't have any hard evidence to back up this claim but I know that it's faster on the Ubuntu vm.
