Hi Jonathan,
In running a test-document, generating lots of accented characters,
and diacritics, I hit the pool-size limit:
doing uppercase accents with \textlangleabove
! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [pool size=66445].
<argument> \textlangleabove
The value of 66445 is pretty small for modern requirements.
something in excess of 100000 is pretty normal these days...
pool_size = 125000
pool_size.hugetex = 1250000
(from my texmf.cnf )
and that 'hugetex' figure (> 1million) is used also by pdfetex .
Since we cannot compile xetex for ourselves, it would
make sense to distribute it with the larger pool-size.
Would you do that please, in the next (minor) release ?
Cheers,
Ross
