### Issue The current implementation of `FUNCTION FLUSH` command uses `lua_unref()` to unreference script closures in Lua vm. However, invoking `lua_unref()` during lazy free (`ASYNC` argument) is risky since it is not thread-safe. Another issue is that using `lua_unref()` to unreference references does not trigger GC, This can result in the Lua VM leaves a significant amount of garbage, which may never be cleaned up if not properly GC. ### Solution The proposed solution is to completely rebuild the engines, resulting in a brand new Lua VM. --------- Co-authored-by: meir <meir@redis.com>
