[discussion] Why don't more (any?) plugin authors use penlight?
Have you seen the code base of penlight? 1. TBH, I don't think it takes a good perf, it's a lot of overhead to package Lua into Python. In my dev plugin experience, I rarely deal with complicated data. vim.tbl_ is enough for me. 2. My personal choice, I prefer JavaScript style rather than Python. 3. I tend to use the libs like luafun with perf gain or Lua binding libs, but I don't have this need at present. 4. Can steal a small piece of code to keep away from dependency.

Is luajit really that fast?
you could refactor using luajit + luafun
What are some alternatives?
When comparing lcurses and luafun you can also consider the following projects:
lua-luajit-compound-operators - Compound Operators patch for lua/luajit
Penlight - A set of pure Lua libraries focusing on input data handling (such as reading configuration files), functional programming (such as map, reduce, placeholder expressions,etc), and OS path management. Much of the functionality is inspired by the Python standard libraries.
