So a couple of steps are executed for a script and then for the next. This method then should be totally in Lua and work wherever Lua does. What are the disadvantages? Would there be a serious hit on performance?
What other possible ways could be there to do this?
You're off into a weird and wild world of combining a debug library (typically slow) with multi-threading. That sounds awesome. :)
llthreads[1] was listed amongst many others, but in case its usefulness was lost in the noise, I'll vouch for its usefulness. It works in a cross-platform-y way, although I'm not so sure about android. It's also lightweight and is a perfect match with nanomsg / luasockets / zmq / etc.
Depending on how crazy you want to get, this might be the simplest approach, but I can't offer meaningful advice on using the debug library.
