Do note, as is mentioned in the comment Thread for the gist, that Fibur is also fully Ruby 1.8 compatible...

Would this be useful for environments where extreme performance is necessary, such as Fibonacci API servers?

Only if you're reading Fibonacci numbers from an I/O. Fibur only allows concurrency while doing I/O operations.

This changes everything. Looking forward for Ilya Grigorik's writeup on the features and possible uses for this library.
