Hi everyone,
I would like to invite you to try to install TL 2014 pretest to make
sure that ConTeXt (and jit in particular) works as expected.
https://www.tug.org/texlive/pretest.html
You are invited to play with your installation and different settings
and to test some of your documents.
Theoretically we are already past the freeze date, but if any major
problems show up, there might be still time for a fix.
The version of ConTeXt that will end up in TL is 2014.05.21 22:04.
Mojca

I guess that in that case we should call it a current (instead of beta).

Hi Mojca,
I have found a what might be a bug in latest beta, but I don’t have to
report it right now.
Only a question. When Luigi announced luajittex-0.78.2
(http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2014/076633.html), he commented
the possibility of having only luajittex in the future.
What happened to that merging?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

You probably misunderstood the message. Luigi kept developing
LuaJITTeX separately from LuaTeX until recently, at
https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/luajittex, so the two projects
(luatex and luajittex) contained almost the same source code with only
minor differences and we had to compile them separately. Both projects
now coexist at https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/luatex in the same
subversion repository and both binaries are built from the same
sources.

Concerning 'only luajittex' .. it will always be two separate binaries
- luajit is only available for some architectures
- luajittex has some memory constraints due to the different Lua vm
In context you use
mtxrunjit ...
contextjit ...
if you want the most efficient call, although (at least for now)
mtxrun --jit
context --jit
will also work (but starts up slower due to a relaunch, using some ugly
hacks).
On the average luajittex runs faster (some 15-20% normally, but it can
be less or more depending on how extreme Lua usage is).

Dear Mojca,
many thanks for your explanation.
I now see that I misread the message.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
