i removed some older (slower / more demanding) code in mkiv and indeed
one can now hit a boundary in luatex ... (i wanted to share critical
code between mkiv and lmtx) .. there are reasons why we go lmtx
btw, one can decide to split up this large table in pieces, after all,
it is generated so one knows the properties
(Thomas has larger tables and so far he didn't complain for lmtx; the
lmtx table code is also faster.)
