Description

lighttpd uses a very simple hash algorithm to create etags. I ported the function "hashme" to lua to be able to create etags also from lua.

Another feature is the lighty variable lighty.env["request.time"] to get the cached time without a syscall.

The hashme implementation is incorrect. To correct it, please use (unsigned char *)

const unsigned char *s = (unsigned char *)luaL_checkstring(L, 1);

The functionality of the patch could be done in lua code. Why is there a measurable benefit after taking into account the cost of marshalling across language boundaries?
