It would get really interesting if someone modified LuaJIT to emit asm.js code. In this case, the Lua code could be even faster than the equivalent JS code on some applications where LuaJIT generates better code than V8/IonMonkey (even considering the 2x slowdown of asm.js wrt native). The relevant yo dawg joke would be "I heard you like JITs so we put LuaJIT on your OdinMonkey so you can JIT while you JIT"
