Thanks! Is there a "canonical" place to find this documented, like with the ruby distro?

> For Rails you'd want to just edit the executable Rails scripts like `bin/rails` to include that flag.

Alternately, you can edit your shell init scripts to put the correct thing in `RUBY_OPTS` ENV variable, yes?

I would consider this preferable to editing executable rails scripts with implementation-specific stuff (and then hoping that the app is always launched with those edited shell scripts, which I'm not sure eg `bundle exec rails` will do). I don't think editing Rails scripts is probably the "right" or recommended way to do this.

But I'm not going to try to specify what you put in `RUBY_OPTS` since i haven't done it myself and don't want to spread misinformation! (Again, is this documented in a centralized trustworthy place? As I try to google it... I am somewhat frustrated with the ruby documentation situation!)

Perhaps this is what you are looking for:

thank you!

We're using puma and set the RUBYOPT=--yjit in a systemd environment variable for our puma service.

The performance impact of enabling yjit was quite obvious in our charts. Another giveaway that it's properly enabled is the servers will use consume more memory.
