At present, ActiveRecord::Delegation compiles delegation methods on a
global basis. The compiled methods apply to all subsequent Relation
instances. This creates several problems:

1) After Post.all.recent has been called, User.all.respond_to?(:recent)
   will be true, even if User.all.recent will actually raise an error due
   to no User.recent method existing. (See #8080.)

2) Depending on the AR class, the delegation should do different things.
   For example, if a Post.zip method exists, then Post.all.zip should call
   it. But this will then result in User.zip being called by a subsequent
   User.all.zip, even if User.zip does not exist, when in fact
   User.all.zip should call User.all.to_a.zip. (There are various
   variants of this problem.)

We are creating these compiled delegations in order to avoid method
missing and to avoid repeating logic on each invocation.

One way of handling these issues is to add additional checks in various
places to ensure we're doing the "right thing". However, this makes the
compiled methods signficantly slower. In which case, there's almost no
point in avoiding method_missing at all. (See #8127 for a proposed
solution which takes this approach.)

This is an alternative approach which involves creating a subclass of
ActiveRecord::Relation for each AR class represented. So, with this
patch, Post.all.class != User.all.class. This means that the delegations
are compiled for and only apply to a single AR class. A compiled method
for Post.all will not be invoked from User.all.

This solves the above issues without incurring significant performance
penalties. It's designed to be relatively seamless, however the downside
is a bit of complexity and potentially confusion for a user who thinks
that Post.all and User.all should be instances of the same class.

require 'active_record'
require 'benchmark/ips'

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
  establish_connection adapter: 'sqlite3', database: ':memory:'
  connection.create_table :posts

  def self.omg
    :omg
  end
end

relation = Post.all

Benchmark.ips do |r|
  r.report('delegation')   { relation.omg }
  r.report('constructing') { Post.all }

Comments
--------

Bear in mind that the standard deviations in the above are huge, so we
can't compare the numbers too directly. However, we can conclude that
Relation construction has become a little slower (as we'd expect), but
not by a huge huge amount, and we can still construct a large number of
Relations quite quickly.
