I've only played around a bit with LuaJIT
(can't use it at work since we
use SPARC, and LuaJIT doesn't support that architecture, but we do use
Lua at work) and from what I've seen, it is *very* impressive. Lua
itself it one of the fastest interpreted langauges going and LuaJIT
brings it to C speed (or close enough).
Thanks. Lack of SPARC support is a deal killer for me. I hate Intel and I'm
trying to get away from it, I plan to do any development as much as
possible on SPARC.

it's not like it's
anything new 8-)
Early 90s isn't new? Kids these days! :-)
