problems with markdown to epub

problems with markdown to epub

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 923 bytes --]

Dear all,

I am trying to use pandoc to convert a large markdown file (14M, English, 
utf-8) to epub with several issues:

1. large memory consumption (more than 100GB) and exit with "killed:9".
2. I try to divide the file into 2 or 4, but the first part still fails 
with "killed: 9".
3. For part that can be converted, some sections are missing.

If help, I can upload my source markdown to the forum.

I am using pandoc 2.16 mac os version. My OS has been just upgraded to 
Monterey (12.0.1).

Thanks,

David

The md file is uploaded 
to https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cQO0trSTObSq4Gk-_CwrQvo991fiTC_a/view?usp=sharing

The command to convert is:

pandoc -o h.epub h.md --toc --toc-depth=2

I'll look into it, but there are known performance issues
with the standard markdown parser.  For better performance,
use the commonmark parser, e.g.

pandoc -f commonmark h.md -o h.epub

This finished in about 15 seconds on my system.

The root of the problem is the square brackets used to mark
Tibetan names: see this open issue:
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/1735

A global replace of [ -> \[ and ] -> \] fixed the problem.
