The Ruby-extension HornetsEye makes use of libjit. This means that you can even define and compile methods during runtime. Here is a 46 MByte video demonstrating this capability. I recommend to watch the OGG video instead of the Shockwave video. It is of much higher quality.

Demonstration of an interactive Ruby-session using libjit and HornetsEye. You can also view the OGG-video of the JIT demo which is of higher quality. The video was created using recordMyDesktop. The Hong Kong skyline was used as a background picture
