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.

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.

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.

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.
