LuaJIT may make the performance of Lua better or even just acceptable in some cases, but it does nothing to help ensure correctness. Correctness is almost always more important than performance. It most cases it is useless to do something quickly, but to also be doing it incorrectly.
- justincormack 14y agoI was responding to the OP who said static typing was necessary for performance, by providing a counterexample. And "better or just acceptable" is rather dismissive of the facts.
- protomyth 14y agoStrongtalk is another example that can be given of dynamic performance.
