Well, it depends on a lot of factors.
Moving complicated Nginx configuration into Lua generally makes your
nginx.conf much cleaner but I won't say it will give you "substantial
performance increase" because all of the Nginx configuration
directives are carefully implemented in hand-written C anyway.
If you're running dynamic web apps with something like PHP, Perl,
Ruby, and Python, then it's very likely that moving your whole app
over to Lua will give you "substantial performance increase" :)
I'm cc'ing the openresty-en mailing list:

to join there to discuss such things :)
