The fine print on LuaJIT:
* Only x86 (i386+) CPUs are supported right now (but see below).
That is the first, main reason why luajit is not included in
luatex yet. The other reason is that we don't expect that much

i wonder if it makes much of a difference in the way we use lua; most
time is currently spent on
- does using \doifundefined{myMacro}{...} shorten tex runs/compile time ?
- what are the features to avoid for shortest compile times ?

Depends on your document and what do you want.

Typesetting and macro expansion. Together they are good for
at least 90% of your running time :)
Seriously: it depends, but watch out for unnecessary use of
\switchtobodyfont.

As I don't know/understand what happens between (Lua)TeX runs, to
keep macro
definitions in memory.
The only way to use information from a previous run

not that much
- what are the features to avoid for shortest compile times ?
most code is rather optimized
you can best avoid redundant font switches

Correction: to avoid spending time redefining macros in case their
definitions are kept in memory between Lua(TeX) runs.
i'm not sure what you mean, but defining a bunch of macros at runtime is
not that time consuming
