case/when dispatches already optimize away allocation of constant
string literals in all C Ruby 1.9.x/2.x releases
(ref: opt_case_dispatch in Ruby insns.def)
Other Ruby implementations presumably have similar optimizations
to encourage prettier code.
The following code snippet does not cause GC.count to increase
during the two loops, regardless of what `nr' is.
Tested on Ruby 1.9.3, 2.1.3, and trunk r47786:
GET = "GET"
HEAD = "HEAD"
REQUEST_METHOD = "REQUEST_METHOD" # unnecessary in 2.2.0+
env = { REQUEST_METHOD => "GET" }
nr = 10000000
nr.times do |i|
case env[REQUEST_METHOD]
when GET, HEAD
:foo
else
:bar
end
end
a = GC.count
nr.times do |i|
case env[REQUEST_METHOD]
when "GET", "HEAD"
:foo
else
:bar
end
end
b = GC.count
p [ a, b ]

OK, I disagree with one part :)
I think the following allocations may be elided in future C Ruby, too:
a) foo == "lit" (and "lit" == foo)
b) str << "lit"
