It happens in intermediary stages of work. I stumbled upon the problem
when I started engraving a new piece by setting up this:
global = {
\time 3/8
\key f \major
s4.*438
\bar "||"
\time 2/2
\set Timing.currentBarNumber = 1
s1*170
\bar "|."
}
and then combining it with the first couple bars of music, to be
surprised by the extraordinarily long compile time.
So I don’t think it’s a contrived example, and since I do think this is
a useful workflow, it would certainly help to make LilyPond compile this
faster.
Best, Simon
PS. Bonus points for guessing the piece ;-)
