i wonder if it makes much of a difference in the way we use lua; most
time is currently spent on function calls and tex-lua interfacing and if
i'm right jit does not help much there
long ago i did some tests and jut is indeed impressive but for larger
functions (and we have many of them) you need to tune parameters in
order to gain something
once luatex is finished we can look into it again but keep in mind that
jit is only available for someplatforms/architectures
(btw i do lots if speed tests when writing lua code for mkiv, so often
the code is already rather optimized)
