> If you are embedding, LuaJIT is a no-brainer. If you are using a stand-alone interpreter, measure if you care about reality. This seems backwards. Lua is easier to embed and luajit is just as easy to install standalone and has zero downsides. |

I just said that I have measured it being slower in at least some use cases.
JIT gains better when already compiled paths run repeatedly. Most long running programs embedding Lua will choose luajit for this reason.
I don't care what people use, the point is that JIT compilation isn't magic that makes everything faster. The way to know is measure.
