Oddly, the Ruby version runs more slowly every time I run it. I think memory locality may be the problem, as the Ruby process grows each time (now at 85 MB). That's nothing compared to my MzScheme process which is now consuming 700MB. That's probably due to the inefficient way in which nwords is constructed. A bit of tuning there might work wonders for overall performance.
