Re: Garbage Collection bottleneck

Yep, the removal of "for k,v in myTable do" syntax was probably the  
biggest lua source conversion hassle for us as well. getn/setn was  
also a big one, but we put that off by defining LUA_COMPAT_GETN, and  
fixed the getn()/setn() problems at our leisure (we don't need to  
define the macro anymore).
