I looked at it, but there's no md5 api in JS... you have to do it by

MD5 is really fast and fits easily into javascript's integer types.
There should be reasonably fast implementations available.
Alternatively, you could generate asm.js and web assembly code using
something like emscripten.
Is it supported to do the job of pygments in Lua?
You can do any type of text processing you want from Lua. If you'd
like to contribute a Lua highlighter, that'd be quite nice.
What it does today is spawn the python runtime, start that up etc.
Have you measured latency issues with this?
Nope, but it's obviously more efficient to not be spawning python apps.
Don't you think?
I know... bandwidth and server compute time.
Also there's no reason (other than not enough care taken with frees atm)
cgit should only be buildable as a cgi starting up its own process each
time.
You're talking about FastCGI support? I have no idea how this is
related to the current line of discussion -- perhaps just by being
another gripe or something -- but this is actually something we've
What was the first gripe? I am providing patches for all these things
not moaning about them.
I mention it because starting up cgit as a process each time is also
overhead, I think it would be interesting also to look at eliminating that.
looked at in depth. (See the list archives.) Our last conclusion from
examining it was that so much of libgit is not re-entrant, and so we'd
need to move to something like libgit2 for this to be feasible. Too
many globals, etc.
Let me guess, not enough people around working on this project, for some
reason, to move to libgit2.
It could optionally link against OpenSSL then :-) It can optionally
link against lua.
If you're not interested in going where this stuff is going, you can
save us both a lot of time by just saying it now, and I'll stop trying
to sell it here.
I made that clear in my very first message to you:
"Sorry, but not a chance something like this can be accepted."
If that's your feeling about the whole stack of clientside stuff, I
understand you don't want to cooperate on it.
No worries I'll leave you to it then.
