Yes, but the easy of use of JavaScript is orthogonal to the performance claims.

Also, keep in mind that I wrote Lua-JIT, not Lua. There's a big performance difference between them too.

I will perform the test on the speed of Lua-jit, but I wrote redis-v8 not for speed. The fact that the V8 was faster than Lua (regular) was a surprise for me.
