Speed and memory usage of Lua -vs- SpiderMonkey:

    I already knew that Lua is better (faster/leaner) than most
languages out there, but I certainly didn't expect it to be beaten by
haskell. But maybe is just prejudice against haskell syntax, since
it's just compiled once before the execution of the test.
    Does anybody know why haskell is so better than Lua?
