> LuaJIT with the JIT enabled is much faster than all of the other languages benchmarked

I'm wondering if somebody knows about a good benchmark showing this? The ones I found in a cursory google search all seemed to show that for example node.js on V8 outperforms or matches the speed of LuaJIT.

EDIT: Seems like they only compared to python and ruby which explains why LuaJIT was always the fastest interpreter in their benchmark: http://wren.io/performance.html
