Seems that I don't have too many choices. Maybe using lua to do the math and throwing the result to metapost is faster? I think I can do this, but I don't know how. The documents are a little limited.
For circles, probably lua calculations will be faster because the data manipulation will be a bit easier. But for non-circle paths, you are better off with a metapost solution because of lua not knowing about the actual paths.
