Hi,

I just got the following assert:

lua_assert(g->totalbytes >= g->estimate)

...on line 630, lgc.c. A bit of Googling found the following reference:

http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2004-12/msg00248.html

...where Roberto suggests that it be commented out. That was six years
and several updates of Lua ago; I've commented it out, but I'm hoping to
get a verification that it's still an "optional" assert, and that it's
not indicating a deeper problem.

I couldn't find the earlier discussion Roberto alluded to; apologies if
the info is there and I'm just not finding it. I do admit to being
curious as to why it's still there if it's a harmless condition as well.

Tim
