It is like putting the entire life's work of an author into
a single bound volume.

 I (mis)use that mechanism for compiling either separate sections
 versus the whole document. I miss the functionality of

Please use products and components for that. There may be
partial compilation support eventually, but only for that
level, no the upper one.

a project mentions products and environments

you run a product and/or components (of products); when you run them, 
they will look for env info in the project file

I (mis)use that mechanism for compiling either separate sections
versus the whole document. I miss the functionality of
cross-referencing, automatically numbering the pages  sections  so
on, but I'm aware that that's not trivial to achieve at all.

 The fact that the page breaks are different indicates an
 imperfection somewhere in the internal macro definitions
 for \startproject c.s., and is definately not related to
 the length of your document.

 But, since you are not really supposed to compile the project
 file in the first place, fixing this will be very low on the
 list of to-be-fixed problems, I wager. The manual is not as
 clear on that as it could be (I suppose), but you are definately
 not expected to be compiling project definition files.

Thanks. I will only compile the products and join then using 
--pdfcombine. Each product has separate pagenumbering, so this will 
work for my project as of now.

Hans, I will try to make a minimum example to illustrate the problem.

Thanks,
Aditya

 Hi,
   I have run into a strange kind of a problem and I am not sure on how 
 to debug to figure out what is going wrong. Maybe someone with more 
 experience with context can help me here.

 I have the following document structure

 project: main.tex
 environment:env_main.tex
 products: assignments.tex
handouts.tex

 project: assignments.tex
 components:assignment-01.tex
 assignment-02.tex
   and so on

 project: handouts.tex
 component: handout-01.tex
 handout-02.tex
 and so on.

 Each component starts with \title which does a page break. There are 
 no local setups in any component. I expected that each component will 
 be typed out in the same manner, whether I compile the a component, 
 a product or the entire project. It turns out this is not the case.

 The first page of handout-01.tex is different when I compile the 
 project (main.tex). The pagebreak is set at a different place and I 
 get ugly page break at the end. If I compile handouts.tex or 
 handout-01.tex, the page breaks are same and there is no ugly 
 pagebreak at the end.

 Is it possible that such a behaviour is due to the length of the 
 document. main.pdf is 105 pages long, while handout-01.pdf is 4 pages 
 and handouts.pdf is 14 pages. It seems that due to the large length of 
 main.pdf, context is not trying hard enough to get good page break.
 Even a manual \page[disable] does not prevent the ugly pagebreak for 
 main.tex.

 I am totally confused by this behaviour. Any explainations or 
 suggestions?

   
it may be related to write nodes, marks etc that are flushed 
differently; if you can make a minimal example ...

Hans
