I didn't know of any benchmarks.  I think, the fastes is Gauche, Guile
w/o run macro and Ruby are nearly equal, Guile with run macro (and of
course with RT) is faster than Ruby.

You have to write code snippets in C.  I haven't used RubyInline for
years and I couldn't find any old files on my disks, sorry.
