Make sure that you run the latest beta. Indeed there has been a change 
to these Page related areas because in a recent mp there were several 
issues (most related to memory leaks), so I made a less demanding 
implementation. In the meantime Taco has fixed a lot of mp issues so 
upcoming luatex/mplib are okay (performance and memory wise). It all 
relates to mp now having scaled and double mode.

(Alan is testing the mp double mechanisms.)

Of course there can be other issues,

Hans
