What’s the latest on Truffle/Ruby supporting Rails?

Wouldn’t this provide massive gains for the Rails ecosystem once delivered?

(And with the GraalVM licenses changes to be more favorable/permission, I have to imagine there would be significant adoption)

    TruffleRuby runs Rails and is compatible with many gems, including C extensions. TruffleRuby is not 100% compatible with MRI 3.2 yet. Please report any compatibility issues you might find. TruffleRuby passes around 97% of ruby/spec, more than any other alternative Ruby implementation.

GitHub page has some info: https://github.com/oracle/truffleruby#current-status

My question is, how viable is TruffleRuby vs JRuby?
