Without debug symbols (the default Makefile includes them), the executable is 83KB (93KB with -g), less than half the size of Lua. The shared library is a bit larger, at 102KB.

Lua's whole table-metatable system always felt awkward to me, what with the magic names for operators. It's really not so bad, I just didn't see any reason to spend time learning something that felt awkward and archaic to me when I could make something that seemed a bit cleaner.
