Method: RubyVM.stat

Defined in:
vm.c

.stat ⇒ Hash .stat(hsh) ⇒ Hash .stat(Symbol) ⇒ Numeric

Returns a Hash containing implementation-dependent counters inside the VM.

This hash includes information about method/constant cache serials:

{
  :global_method_state=>251,
  :global_constant_state=>481,
  :class_serial=>9029
}

The contents of the hash are implementation specific and may be changed in the future.

This method is only expected to work on C Ruby.
