<p>A utility file has always been part of <l n='context'/> and with
the move to <l n='luatex'/> we also moved a lot of multi-pass info
to a <l n='lua'/> table. Instead of loading a <l n='tex'/> based
utility file under different setups, we now load a table once. This
saves much runtime but at the cost of more memory usage.</p>
