how would that help?  if he can't load his hyphenation patterns, he's
not yet getting anywhere near exercising those.

my recommendation in the past has always been to increase trie_size
and then rebuild all relevant formats (to be simplest, just "all
formats").  if the rebuild _still_ says trie size isn't large enough,
increase it again.

if you've got the physical memory to support it, fine.  force your
system to swap, and you'll be whinging about the feeble behaviour of
tex.
