Missing INSTALLATION documentation

[fireproofsocks]

Did I overlook this critical info?

[HenkPoley]

It's sort of along the lines of:

git clone https://github.com/giltene/wrk2.git
cd wrk2
sudo apt install build-essential # or your distros equivalent of "fetch Clang/GCC and the rest". E.g. yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
make
# find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 dos2unix # if you get "error: 'recff_rawlen'" during make, and run make again.

Will this work on a Mac?

make
Building LuaJIT...
HOSTCC    host/minilua.o
HOSTLINK  host/minilua
ld: library not found for -lgcc_s.10.4
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[1]: *** [host/minilua] Error 1
make: *** [deps/luajit/src/libluajit.a] Error 2

I am having a slightly differnt issue compiling on MacOS, and none of the suggestions in the wiki work.

BUILDVM   lj_folddef.h
make[1]: *** [lj_folddef.h] Segmentation fault: 11
make[1]: *** Deleting file `lj_folddef.h'
make: *** [deps/luajit/src/libluajit.a] Error 2

@abelsromero - did you find a workaround? I have the same issue
