No it’s not. The reference Lua implementation is considered, quite correctly, to be a well written piece of cross platform C.
The main alternative implementation, luajit, is considered to be nothing short of magical.
Unfortunately, and I don’t like going ad hominem, as the scripting language for GIMP is not, and has never been, Lua, I wouldn’t recommend taking anything said in that comment too seriously.
BTW the base scripting language for GIMP is a Scheme dialect called Script-Fu. I can’t comment on its implementation as I haven’t seen it.
