[tex4ht] How to control/optimize the number of times make4ht runs dvilualatex?

[Nasser M. Abbasi]

I have follow up question:

is the number of times one has to compile the latex file using
lualatex related and will be same as number of times one has
to compile it to HTML using tex4ht?

I mean, if I find that on one file, I need to run lualatex 3 times
to get all references and labels sorted out, does this mean
the same number of times would be needed for tex4ht?

Or not necessarily so? and these are not releated and can be different?

Reason I am asking, is that it is easy to count/find the
number of times needed to call lulatex. So I could use that number of
times, to also call tex4ht on same file.
