Subject: [ruby-core:112044] [Ruby master Bug#19334] Defining many instance variables and accessing them is slow in Ruby 3.2.0

Issue #19334 has been updated by byroot (Jean Boussier).

Backport changed from 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN to 2.7: DONTNEED, 3.0: DONTNEED, 3.1: DONTNEED, 3.2: UNKNOWN

@mame would you consider 78fcc9847a9db6d42c8c263154ec05903a370b6b worth backporting?

class C
  eval("def initialize; #{ (0..100000).map { "@x#{ _1 } = 0; " }.join } end")
  attr_reader :x50000
end
p :start
C.new.x50000
```

This script takes less than one second in Ruby 3.1.3, and does more than ten second in Ruby 3.2.0.

```
$ time ruby -v test.rb
ruby 3.1.3p185 (2022-11-24 revision 1a6b16756e) [x86_64-linux]
:start

real    0m0.210s
user    0m0.167s
sys     0m0.044s
```

```
$ time ruby -v test.rb
ruby 3.2.0 (2022-12-25 revision a528908271) [x86_64-linux]
:start

real    0m11.026s
user    0m10.950s
sys     0m0.040s
```

This problem is not critical, but is there any room for improvement?
