RaptorJIT

RaptorJIT is a Lua implementation suitable for high-performance low-level system programming. If you want to use a simple dynamic language to write a network stack; a hypervisor; a unikernel; a database; etc, then you have come to the right place.

Features

Ubiquitous tracing and profiling to make application performance and compiler behaviour transparent to programmers
Interactive tools for inspecting and cross-referencing trace and profiler data (Studio)
Documentation available
Collaborative and distributed development based on the Linux kernel fork-and-merge model
Added auditlog and vmprofile low-overhead ("always on") binary tracing and profiler logging features. Removed obsoleted tracing based on introspection including jit.v, jit.dump, and jit.p
Compiler heuristics tightened to reduce the risk of bytecode blacklisting causing catastrophic performance drops
Started using git merge to accept contributions of both code and development history from other forks
RaptorJIT is used successfully by the Snabb community to develop high-performance production network equipment
