Well, that's a FAQ (or a FEN - frequently expressed need) and I suppose 
Lloyd, among others, hoped for a simple and definitive answer... :-)

"can I exclude loop kind of lua features"

I fear not. Well, tweaking the code, I suppose you can remove for, while 
and repeat/until. But you would have also to remove function call 
support (recursion).
But at this point, you better use Json or Yaml for configuration... :-D
So as said, a solution is to stop a long running Lua script.
