I don't have any hard performance stats between luajit 2.0 and lua 5.1.5. The jive hardware players all use lua 5.1.1 with language extensions not provided in the base syntax. 'Triode stated' (https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98156-Announce-JiveLite-cut-down-squeezebox-control-application&p=738445&viewfull=1#post738445) the move from lua to luajit was for additional features, and a performance boost, but again no hard numbers. There is only one feature of luajit used in Jivelite that I revert to the lua version and I had to add LuaBitOp language extension to lua 5.1 Monitoring jivelite CPU usage while the VU Meter now playing screen is active shows no significant difference. The picoreplayer jivelite builds have always used lua 5.1.x so it's been well tested over the years.
