Hi,

Here are the highlights of todays update:

- somewhat more compact tuc files, not for all documents, but it can accumulate; also less memory used then; i could bring down an extreme 2000 page 5 column doc tuc file down to 5% -- it was 70 MB; for the luametatex manual it reducec the tuc more than 30%; hard to tell if there will be an associated performance hit, but i'm sure thomas will complain if that's the case

I never realized that tuc files can grow so big. For big documents, would it make sense to simply read and write zipped tuc files? Aditya
