A comment on Ignition: V8 Interpreter. Parent comment
V8 had no optimizing compiler when Mike Pall sent his (in)famous mail about "LuaJIT interpreter beating V8 compiler"[1].
Also usual disclaimers about cross-language benchmarks apply (e.g. nobody looked how those benchmarks differ between JS and Lua implementation).
