Cacheing of function call resolutions

[Patrick Byrne <pbyrne@...>]

Hello,

I am new to Lua, my company is looking into using it for our computer 
games engine.

One of my tasks in initial evaluation is looking into optimising the 
runtime parser, with regard to cacheing function table resolutions and 
resolved data types.

Is there any existing literature on this area, and could someone kindly 
point me to it if so?

Thanks
