i could run this
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}{narf \page}
\stoptext
==
pdfTeX warning: pdftex: no GlyphToUnicode entry has been inserted yet!
Output written on test.pdf (5 pages, 10574005 bytes).

and got 5 pages in one pdf.
Okular is quite slow in opening it and needs 200 MB RAM, but it works.
But i could not use Ctrl-C to break the loop.
I think that is a bug, or not?
i use this context:

its hard to figure out where it happens so probably taco has to run a
variant with debugging on; maybe a core luatex function is not cleaning
up the stack

That is mkii, right? (I am not interested in that)

yes, I think so.
Yes it was a bug, fixed in the luatex source repository now.

How high is the limit now? Just curious, since I saw LuaTeX building _a
paragraph_ lasting few hundred pages without problems (on the other hand,
pdfTeX couldn't do it).

For the simple knuth case most likely the size of your harddisk is the limit (iff luatex can generate PDFs >4GB :). And you'll get problems with pdfs with millions of objects (i.e. pages), as readers can't cope with them.

There is nothing hardcoded anywhere, but I suspect that after a few million pages some limit somewhere will be reached eventually: either the harddisk gets full, or your pdf reader will be unable to open the pdf due to its internal limits (luatex will happily create 10GB pdfs).
