This change integrates mimalloc as the default memory allocator for Regorus, delivering significant performance improvements across all evaluation modes and language bindings. Technical Implementation: - Build mimalloc in vendored mode from C sources (following QSharp approach) - Implement GlobalAlloc trait for seamless Rust integration - Add optional 'mimalloc' feature flag for conditional compilation - Add comprehensive ACI benchmarks to measure evaluation performance Performance Impact: Rust Engine Evaluation: - Single-threaded: ~29% improvement (423 vs 328 Kelem/s) - Multi-threaded: Better scaling with reduced thread contention - Fresh engines: ~24% improvement (56 vs 45 Kelem/s) Rust Compiled Policy Evaluation: - Single-threaded: ~41% improvement (426 vs 303 Kelem/s) - Multi-threaded: Improved allocation efficiency under contention - Fresh compilation: ~26% improvement (53 vs 42 Kelem/s) C# FFI Bindings: - Engine evaluation: ~27% improvement (279 vs 219 Kelem/s) - Compiled policies: ~29% improvement (273 vs 211 Kelem/s) - Better threading characteristics through improved underlying allocation Key Benefits: - Reduced allocation-related contention in multi-threaded scenarios - More consistent performance across different thread counts - Improved memory allocation efficiency for both native Rust and FFI workloads - Better scaling characteristics for production deployments The mimalloc integration provides substantial performance gains while maintaining full compatibility with existing code through feature flags.

Regorusrb
Regorus is
- Rego-Rus(t) - A fast, light-weight Rego interpreter written in Rust.
- Rigorous - A rigorous enforcer of well-defined Rego semantics.
Installation
Regorus can be used in Ruby by configuring bundler to build from the remote git source.
If using Bundler to manage gems (recommended), edit your gemfile to include the following
gem "regorusrb", git: "https://github.com/microsoft/regorus/", glob: "bindings/ruby/*.gemspec"
or manually install checkout the source and build the gem
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/regorus/ cd regorus/bindings/ruby rake && rake build # should eventually output 'regorusrb 0.1.0 built to pkg/regorusrb-0.1.0.gem.' gem install --local ./pkg/regorusrb-0.1.0.gem
It is not yet available in rubygems.
See Repository.
To build this gem locally without bundler,
rake build
then to install the gem and build the native extensions
gem install --local ./pkg/regorusrb-0.1.0.gem
Usage
require "regorus"
engine = Regorus::Engine.new
# Policy is old-style.
engine.set_rego_v0(true)
engine.add_policy_from_file('../../tests/aci/framework.rego')
engine.add_policy_from_file('../../tests/aci/api.rego')
engine.add_policy_from_file('../../tests/aci/policy.rego')

Development
To update the gem version or dependencies within bindings/ruby/Gemfile.lock, run bundle update --gemfile=bindings/ruby/Gemfile from the project directory, or cd bindings/ruby && bundle update
After checking out the repo, cd bindings/ruby and run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
