::RubyVM::OPTS, which shows vm build options
::RubyVM::INSTRUCTION_NAMES
::RubyVM::DEFAULT_PARAMS This constant variable shows VM’s default parameters. Note that changing these values does not affect VM execution. Specification is not stable and you should not depend on this value. Of course, this constant is MRI specific.

}
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.
