https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tryptophan#Recommended_dietary...

  Soybeans: 0.59g/100g of food
  Beef: 0.23g/100g of food
  Chickpeas: 0.19g/100g of food
Doesn't look like a vegetarian or vegan diet would cause any sort of tryptophan deficiency.

According to your link, those are figures for raw (dried) beans. When water is added during cooking, concentrations will go down.
