dumb question I thought the GC tunings, e.g. RUBY_HEAP_MIN_SLOTS, were only available in REE, rather than MRI?

starting with 1.9.3 they are also available on MRI, though not sure about 2.0.0 as there GC are highly refactored/optimized.

Would love to see the updated test once Ruby 2.0 is out in a few days time.
