Hmm, interesting case. That makes locking the runtime appear much less appealing inside of `__dealloc__`. It's difficult to avoid, though. The lock that Lupa uses is re-entrant, so this rarely...

I started fixing this, but the test that you provided is still failing. Might just be a missing cleanup call somewhere. See https://github.com/scoder/lupa/pull/255

I don't use pytest myself. Try `python -m unittest -v lupa.tests.suite`.

That line imports the Lua module with the latest available version, after putting some effort into selecting it. It's a bit more than a simple import since it needs to...

I had looked at it when you wrote it and wasn't sure. The difference is that, in your proposal, the Lua runtime gets cleaned up after each run, thus clearing...

I took another look and it turns out that most of the excess references in the test are cleaned up by triggering a run of the Lua garbage collector. Most,...

I think it's too difficult to test correctly for reference leaks here, so the test sadly has to go without that. I simplified it.
