There was no entry like this ;(
But I created it (and also hash_size_def) in section MikTeX, pdfeTeX...
I created new section Magic, too - and try changing other values, but
nothing has effect with this size ;(

I compared the simlest document in LaTeX with the simpliest document in
ConTeXt - there was:
- about 3000 multiletter control sequences out of 35000 in LaTeX
- about 30000 ! in ConTeXt

Why MikTeX don't support ConTeXt?... Why... ;)

Ehm ... I'm not sure if this is the reason or not, but did you
try redumping the formats after making the change?

i think that when you load a bunch of packages in latex and process a few 
docs, the number of control sequences will be larger that 3000 (not 30K) 
and demanding docs with lots of cross refs eat up hash space as well. Any 
tex today should be huge.

Unfortunately I have no experience with Miktex. :-(
But there must be a file in this distribution which sets the memory
allocations too, try to find it and edit the values inthere.

But the problem is I have no file with this name - when I compile
document it is pdfetex used (from MikTeX Large for win32)- I have no idea how
it could be changed. I use ConTeXt not so long - I have no experience with
other TeX systems - I can't believe that I can't build so small document ;(
