An option that might be worth looking at is AngelScript, which I think minimizes the context switch between C++ and the scripting layer really nicely.

I totally forgot about AngelScript. It really has the lowest context switching overhead, but you get to keep the verbose C++ syntax in return, which is a trade-off.

Personally I don't mind if a language differs somewhat, but with Lua I constantly get errors because of basic things like braces, comments and comparisons.
