Hello all.
Pleased to announce another update of the faster_require gem, which
makes loading ruby scripts far far faster in windows.

Halve your rails apps' load/startup time!

Enjoy.

I haven't tried it, but my guess is that it brings it in parity with
1.8.7 performance speedups.
Currently with 1.8.x it's like a 75% speedup, with 1.9.2 it's like a
100% speedup, so probably around there.

Given that Ruby appears to be switching to the BSD License with version

1.9.3, I think that's probably an appropriate choice. If you basically
mean that anybody should be able to use it under whatever license they
like

Switched it to BSD.
Good idea!
