Traumwind - lua is SMALL

Minimal Lua 4.0 installations: So, the whole Lua code takes 64274 bytes, or less than 63K.
...
Removing the parsing modules leaves us with a core of just 25296 bytes, a little more than 24K. This is tiny indeed for a powerful language like Lua! Note also that this reduction was done without sacrificing any language features and without touching the source code; we just need a little help from the linker.
