The so-called "environment limit" is 32 pages, i.e. normally 128 KiB. With the A variable anywhere near this, the size of the Manifest file would be close to 1 MiB. IMHO this is way too large to be used on a regular basis. I am aware that we have some packages with large Manifests (71 packages above 50 KiB, 6 packages above 200 KiB, out of 18812 packages in total), but these should really remain the exception. Ulrich
