> I don't know how feasilble it is, but it might be interesting to try porting the LuaJIT *interpreter* to emscripten. It is significantly faster than the PUC Lua interpreter, though who knows whether the advantages will translate to emscripten or not. Still, it might be worth trying.
A lot of that comes from the LuaJIT interpreter being hand-tuned assembly
with things like register pinning, last I recall. You don't readily have
any LLVM-able part to port, then.
