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.

Enjoy your FFOC.

Richman Stallmont:    Die Python! You don't belong in this world!
FIOCula:        It was not by my hand I am once again given FIOC. I was called here by GvR who wish to pay me whitespaces.
Richman Stallmont:    Whitespaces? You steal men's indentation, and make them your slaves!
FIOCula:        Perhaps the same could be said of all languages.
Richman Stallmont:    Your words are as forced as your indentation! Lispers ill-need a savior such as you!
FIOCula:        What is a Lisp? A miserable little pile of parentheses! But enough talk... Have at you!
