Interesting articles, thank you. I wonder why the author doesn't propose 
his patches for CPython. Does he fear that CPython can become faster 
than Lua? ;-)

And the following article should be especially interesting for Victor:

The part of optimizations already are applied in 3.6 and 3.7, but `a + 
b` still is slower than `a.__add__(b)`.
