My not be any different. In that case it would be a simple project of
creating a new page on the Luajit site that shows the Lua code that does it
with ffi along side the equivalent native C program and some bench marks
that show the results side by side.
The sample / example would allocate the array, Fill it with a set of
doubles read from a file, Run the sum and return both the sum and average
value. If we are successful the Luajit code and the C code should yield
very similar results when ran across a few million items. If not then we
know exactly how much slower it will be for this use case.
This seems like a trivial use case but I do a lot of this kind of work in
our ML project and we run this look mil. We actually have a 3 deep
array the first two levels contain pointers to the next level array.
