Warning: "nodes: unable to store reference from lua in tex"
Hello, after I renewed ConTeXt MkIV, I started to get the following warning: " ... luatex warning > nodes: unable to store reference from lua in tex ... (repeated more times) " This happens when I try to typeset a looo...ong table (by \start/\stop-tabulate) over several pages. It used to work OK with a Ctx version several months (or half year) ago. Is there a simple way to overtake the problem? MWE: ---- \starttext \startluacode context[[ \starttabulate[|Tr|] \HL \NC AABBCC \NC\AR \HL[3] ]] for i = 1, 4000 do context.NC(i) context.NC() context.AR() end context[[ \HL \stoptabulate ]] \stopluacode \stoptext ---- Best regards, Lukas

MkIV only, there is no output for \HL with too many lines (and the warning is shown). \starttext \starttabulate[|l|] \NC xxx \NC\NR \HL \ntimes{\NC yyy \NC\NR}{4000} \stoptabulate \stoptext Wolfgang

\starttext
\starttabulate[|l|] \NC xxx \NC\NR \HL \ntimes{\NC yyy \NC\NR}{4000} \stoptabulate
\stoptext i removed some older (slower / more demanding) code in mkiv and indeed one can now hit a boundary in luatex ... (i wanted to share critical code between mkiv and lmtx) .. there are reasons why we go lmtx
btw, one can decide to split up this large table in pieces, after all, it is generated so one knows the properties (Thomas has larger tables and so far he didn't complain for lmtx; the lmtx table code is also faster.)
