I have been using Terra lately as a C replacement for technical work, but SciLua seems to be a great way to stay with Lua for speed in these types of applications. I am curious if it is going to become faster compared to Julia at the 3 of 8 tests where Julia was faster.
I've looked at Palleen, but I haven't done anything with it yet. I am happy with Terra for now. Terra and Lua make a great combination, and mesh well. I am just trying to work them into my tasks.
