I wish Lua was tested in the benchmarks.

In particular, Lua-CJSON [1]

(I know, everyone wishes their favorite language was represented and not all can be tested. I'm just posting this in case the OP does a "Round 3")

EDIT: fix typo

There will most certainly be a Round 3, and 4 and on and on as long as we continue to have feedback from the community. I can guarantee that we'll have a Lua test in there, but if we receive a pull request, we'll include it.

ngx_lua [1] will beat all of them no matter which JSON library used, end of story.

BTW, LuaRocks is supported [2]

Personally, I really like Lua and I would love to see a pull request with a Lua framework test!
