It of course depends on your portability goals. Presuming you have
the infrastructure to support a custom C function, it will probably be
more portable than an assumption of LuaJIT support.... :]
If you're fine with your code only running on x86+ppc+? then LuaJIT is
obviously a great way to crank up the speed with minimal effort!
