Hello there.
Yesterday I was trying to typeset a very, very long document (about 3000
pages in A4). Well, mkiv died with a
PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (stack overflow (out of stack space))
It's easily reproducible with a simple
\starttext
\dorecurse{50000}{
\input knuth
}
Confirmed
\starttext
\dorecurse{50000}{
\input knuth
}\stoptext
die with
pages>  flushing realpage 3987, userpage 3987

stack space))
its hard to figure out where it happens so probably taco has to run a 
variant with debugging on; maybe a core luatex function is not cleaning 
up the stack
