Just got a useful link related to our topic. Quoting from that page ( http://www.lua.org/pil/12.html ): "Lua not only runs fast, but it also compiles fast. For instance, the above program for listing authors runs in less than one second for 2 MB of data. Again, this is not by chance. Data description has been one of the main applications of Lua since its creation and we took great care to make its compiler fast for large chunks."
