Description
Problem as I see it: `rake bootstrap` and then `rake test:install-core` take a looooooong time. I wish it to be faster.
History:
Way back when, we decided to continue supporting MRI as a runtime Ruby for Logstash. We have since reversed that decision and gone much deeper into JRuby/Java and we no longer even attempt MRI compatibility.
Part of the compatibility work for MRI+JRuby I did for [The Great Rake Refactor](920a9e93621495d3485b087d81ead9c8ebe656be) was to make it a bit easier to switch to different rubies and also to help make bootstrapping for non-jruby-users easier.
I'm not sure we need much of this anymore.
---
My hope is that we can improve the bootstrapping process and maybe even boil it down to a `bundle install` -- maybe? That, or make the plugin installation faster.
Thoughts?
