In my experience, it works well as a drop-in replacement.  You may
have to relink against the lib, but otherwise things Just Work.

Of course, Mike will tell you that if you want to see serious
speed-up, you are better off using pure Lua instead of lots of little
C++ functions...that is, the overhead of calling them is greater than
just writing them in Lua.
