I seee, OK thanks, it works. And I have to admit Taco was right with 
actual page height influences column splitting. I was wrong with my 
opinion. I was confused with

1) \adaptlayout[page][height=+3cm]
    increases the height only by: min(3cm,footer-height)
    (means UPTO footer-height)

2) there is some rounding error if setting height=(fit|middle), see

-----------------------------------------------
\showframe

\setuplayout[
   height=fit, % or middle
]

\startbuffer[table]
\bTABLE[split=yes]
   \dorecurse{200}{\bTR\bTD cell #1\eTD\eTR}
\eTABLE
\stopbuffer

\starttext
\startcolumns
   \getbuffer[table]
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
------------------------------------------------
