+LuaJIT is a B<Just-In-Time Compiler> (JIT) for the E<rchevron> Lua
+programming language. Lua is a powerful, dynamic and light-weight
+programming language. It may be embedded or used as a general-purpose,
+stand-alone language.
+

+
+LuaJIT has been successfully used as a B<scripting middleware> in
+games, appliances, network and graphics apps, numerical simulations,
+trading platforms and many other specialty applications. It scales from
+embedded devices, smartphones, desktops up to server farms. It combines
+high flexibility with E<rchevron> high performance and an unmatched
+B<low memory footprint>.
+
+LuaJIT has been in continuous development since 2005. It's widely
+considered to be B<one of the fastest dynamic language
+implementations>. It has outperformed other dynamic languages on many
+cross-language benchmarks since its first release E<mdash> often by a
+substantial margin.
+
+For B<LuaJIT 2.0>, the whole VM has been rewritten from the ground up
+and relentlessly optimized for performance. It combines a B<high-speed
+interpreter>, written in assembler, with a B<state-of-the-art JIT
+compiler>.
+
+An innovative B<trace compiler> is integrated with advanced, SSA-based
+optimizations and highly tuned code generation backends. A substantial
+reduction of the overhead associated with dynamic languages allows it
+to break into the performance range traditionally reserved for offline,
+static language compilers.
