Hi,

I've just been reading about the advances the SquirrelFish is making.  It seems
like they have learned a lot from Lua.  It is fascinating to see how this
javascript implementation is becoming much faster.  It seems that they are
employing many advanced optimizations.  It reminds me a lot of LuaJIT.

One of the things they mentioned is "direct-threading".  Does Lua support direct
threading? Just curious.

Regards,
