For those that wish to write high speed plugins, but also wish to use the Lua features ce exposes, here's an example sourcecode of a plugin using lua:

@Dark_Byte how much faster is a plugin vs a LUA function already implemented in the memory?

no idea, but lua is an interpreted language.
Under normal usage you'd probably never notice it, but if you where to do high speed 3d rendering with complex calculations, then I do recommend a native code plugin.

e.g you can build a bitcoin miner in lua no issue, but I don't recommend using it
