alt Hacker NewsRun some examples, and it looks like this "High-performance, real-time optimized, super-fast" language is
~ 10 times slower than luajit
~ 3 times slower than lua 5.4Replies

With this and https://github.com/Beariish/bolt/blob/main/doc/Bolt%20Perfor..., it is indeed confusing without testing it out myself.
That said, somehow I do not believe it is faster than LuaJIT. We will see.

Where do you get these numbers from? Looking at https://github.com/Beariish/bolt/blob/main/doc/Bolt%20Perfor... doesn’t seem to support these numbers.

They at least clarified it by saying "outperforming other languages in its class". It's a slow class so the bar is low.
Not bad for version 0.1.0. lua(jit) is no slowpoke and has had decades of performance improvements.
