LUA is FFOC

LUA is the toy language for those who enjoy the Forced Flushing Of L1/L2 Cache per operation. In fact, every operation causes several L2 cache misses during table look-ups, flushing both the L1 and L2 caches.

Yeah. A report by Microsoft about a Non-microsoft product. What exactly did you expect, a fair competition?

Besides me not even attempting to argue that Lua does indeed stated Table cache ``faults'' (if peanuts like that can even be called a fault to begin with), it's obvious that

   1.) Microsoft always makes even the least terrible fault look like a fucking drama
   2.) I have yet to read about a case where this fault actually causes any noticable trouble

So please take your rant and go to /g/, where you belong to.
