But why not disable GC64 on x64?
One of the reasons for the 64-bit port is to get rid of the 2 GB memory limit
Maybe that's a misunderstanding of what the GC64 change does. I doubt
you're using anywhere near 2 GB of Lua (!) objects. Whatever you
allocate from the C side with malloc etc. does not count towards that.
2. Is a custom memory allocator for LuaJIT the recommended way to workaround
other resources (e.g. textures) stealing memory from low-memory areas?
Is this still an issue on Windows in practice, though? I was under
the impression C resources get allocated on random (higher) addresses
due to OS and MSVC hardening in recent years.
