as fast as C, but Lua is improving and C skills are diminishing, so I
guess that in a few years the code written in Lua will be much faster
than the code we'll be able to write in C. Thus I found it wise to

benefits.
First, Lua is easy to learn, we'll get many more developers and
contributors. One of the reason is that you don't need to care about
resource allocation anymore. What's the benefit of doing an strdup() to
keep a copy of a string when you can

I loved it as well, it was easy to write clean and efficient code.
Cheers,

Great one :)

Hi,
As some might have noticed, HAProxy development is progressively slowing
down over time. I have analyzed the situation and came to the following

I'd prefer a complete rewrite of HAProxy in JavaScript. We would be able to
make it run on all platform (hello windows), and with a simple browser tab

As the author of an open-source network server project written in Lua, I'm
delighted at this news. Currently in today's deployments, people who use
haproxy have

You got me going good until I read this. :-) Nice one Willy.

Ok. My immediate thought was..
Oh crap we are going to have to fork haproxy and hire loads of C developers!
Then when someone mentioned what day it was I felt incredible relief :-).
Nice joke. Well executed.
