Requirements

gcc for library compiling (for external-*)

Test Results

External tests

• external_math
• external_pointer
• external_print
• external_struct
• external_closure

Luau-side

• isInteger

• cast

• pretty_print

  need box, ref test

• write_boundary

  Failed, need fix

• read_boundary

  Failed, need fix

Benchmark Results

Note: LuaJit's os.clock function returns process CPU time (used) which much smaller then Luau's os.clock output. In this benchmark, luau uses 'time.h' instead of os.clock. See utility/proc_clock

Target external c function
