That depends on usage.  I have one type of data file that consists of
hundreds (maybe over a thousand) individually compiled Lua chunks,
each of the form eg. "return function(self) self:a(); self:b(); end".
It could be redesigned, but this was bolted onto an existing system
and doing it this way is convenient.
