What's probably happening is eventually the system runs out of memory, the swap gets depleted as well, and as a last act of desperation, the kernel finally denies an allocation request to luatex which is pretty rare. The latter probably then dereferences the null pointer and then it blows. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com
