Lua JIT

LuaJIT is a high-performance implementation of the Lua programming language, designed to run code faster. It achieves this by translating Lua instructions into machine code directly on the fly, rather than interpreting them line-by-line. Think of it as a skilled translator that not only converts instructions but also optimizes them to make execution quicker. This results in significantly reduced processing time, making LuaJIT especially useful for performance-critical applications like games or embedded systems, where efficiency is essential.
