KNOWN ISSUE:

1. MacRuby Slow Startup

A. Version 2.0+ support built-in ruby 1.8. Use system ruby instead.

B. This is a known commnon issue of macruby. One thing recommended is to add VM_OPT_LEVEL=0 in front of the command line like

alias tag='VM_OPT_LEVEL=0 /usr/local/bin/tag'

In my environment, the startup time for the tag command is about 1 second.
