Lua: Multithreading, Precompiled Chunks

[Ashley Fryer <ashley@...>]

Hello all,

A few questions...

Does anyone have experience using Lua in a multithreaded environment?  I 
would like to run several low-priority threads simultaneously, each with 
their own Lua script.  Is there anything in Lua that would break?  I don't 
have any need for interprocess communication, just that nothing Lua-global 
breaks.  Suggestions?

Second, is there some way to run a pre-compiled binary chunk directly from 
memory rather than from a file?  I would like to link some pre-compiled 
chunks directly into my executable, and then have Lua execute them. 
 Possible?

Lastly, is there an archive of the messages from this mailing list 
somewhere?  I'd love to read the old traffic.

Thanks in advance,
Ashley Fryer
