I mentioned it about plain Lua (I have no experience with LuaJIT). I should have qualified it with a lot of "it depends...", starting with "it depends on how your interface is built". I think you should first take measurements to identify the actual bottlenecks and estimate the actual costs on your system, to avoid wasting time and effort.Someone mentioned that calling across the language boundary (C to Lua and vice-versa) is expensive? (I could never remember if that applies to Lua, LuaJIT, or both.)
