And when I used node mode, the memory usage was reduced to 73MB, it's amazing (73MB vs. 491MB). Thanks a lot for everybody's help.
this font is a special case as it has many (also useless) kerns using less mem is possible because i aggressively share tables future versions of luatex might support shared kern tables and additional font access methods so that we can squeeze out a little more but these things are quite unpredictable in node mode kerns are handles differently but it's slower; for fonts that have no advanced features (contextual lookups etc) base mode is faster Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
