HOW TO REPRODUCE:

Open TeXworks and write:

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\begin{document}
abc
\end{document}

and then choose LuaLaTeX as engine, and then press the compiling button. Compilation never finishes and it is stuck at the following console output:

...
luaotfload | db : Font names database not found, generating new one.
luaotfload | db : This can take several minutes; please be patient.

At least waiting for 30 minutes does not finish it.

    According to my further tests, the bug cannot be reproduced on Windows 7 32-bit system, but it can still be reproduced on Windows 8 64-bit system with MiKTeX 64-bit installer latest.
