There are several factors that impact performance:
tex engine : quite a bit faster in luametatex

Hi everyone,
I'm finalising packaging TeX Live 2023 for OpenBSD and have an issue with

This is probably not the same issue, since the path "context-linux-
64/bin/mtxrun" suggests that that isn't a symlink. (Well, it is a
symlink mtxrun => ./luametatex, but that email is about multi-level
symlinks like /usr/bin/context => /usr/local/texlive/2023/bin/x8
of the default TeXlive installation process!). This
is because my OLD "arara" command has the path to the March 13 version
of TeXlive 2023 version (installed from ISO image, with some updates
using tlmgr already installed).

I did a new upload that fixes is (had to do with 'nicer looking' logging).

can you run on a shorter path so that we can see where?

Files that ran well with ver ConTeXt ver: 2021.02.20 16:50 LMTX and
earlier now fail with the following message:
tex error > tex error on line 74 in file
c_Review-0201-01_Bojowald.tex:
lua error:
run callback [36]: [string
"/Applications/LuaMetaTeX/tex/texmf-context/te..."]:
I need to reinstall luametatex version 2.08.13. Is there a page somewhere
describing how to do this?

Dear Hans,
In LuaMetaTeX the directional syntax for boxes
\hbox dir TLT {...}
is no longer supported. Currently this is necessary for PGF because certain

2020.12.03T19:02
2020-12-04T11:32:59 LuaMetaTeX downdated from 2.08.03 20201123 549
to 2.05.01 20200402 491
That is quite a change!

Hi,
with the latest LuaMetaTeX upload (running on Linux x64),
\normalunexpanded tries to write to address 0 and therefore
segfaults:
\normalunexpanded{abc}
\starttext
\stoptext
ConTeXt fails with
mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 139
The most interesting message from valgrind
Thank you for fixing this!

Hi,
recent LuaMetaTeX versions no longer automatically resize the fontdimen

indeed, using font dimens for other purposes than fonts is pre-etex
hackery that (c|sh)ould have been abandoned decades ago
Is there a way
Hi,
recent LuaMetaTeX versions no longer automatically resize the fontdimen
arrays on assignments.
Is there a way to manually resize them or is it necessary to reload a
patched font you want more fontdimens?
Also, there is an issue with the error message (I guess) for font.setfontdimen
