Two other arbitrary examples:

1) re.lua, from the LPeg package:

source size:			  6286
binary size:			128864
binary size without debug info:   4934

2) SHA2.lua (as available in the Lua wiki):

source size:			  8827
binary size:			170111
binary size without debug info:   6049

(Keep in mind that configuration files probably have quite different
profiles.)

(I do not know how debug information can consume so much space! Probably
this is worth some thought...)
