I find floats difficult. They do weird things. I tried to create a
minimum file that shows your columns of figures behaving badly -- I
didn't succeed. Here is the test file I created:
-----
\setupcolors [state=start]
\startuseMPgraphic{fig1}
w := 4cm ; h := 2cm ; ww := 1cm ; hh := 1.5cm ;
fill (0,0)--(0,h)--(w,h)--(w,0)--(ww,0)--(w,hh)--(ww,hh)--(ww,0)--cycle ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\starttext
\input tufte
\startcolumns[n=2]
\placefigure[here]{blabla}{\useMPgraphic{fig1}}
\column
\placefigure[here]{blabla}{\useMPgraphic{fig1}}
\stopcolumns
\page
\startcolumns[n=2]
\placefigure[here]{blabla}{\useMPgraphic{fig1}}
\column
\placefigure[here]{blabla}{\useMPgraphic{fig1}}
\stopcolumns
\input tufte
\stoptext
%%% Local Variables:
%%% mode:context
%%% End:

You may have to post a more complete example that demonstrates where
ConTeXt is behaving badly.
