For the record, I managed to solve this, by scaling up the heap more aggressively. See https://codereview.appspot.com/561390043/diff/557260051/lily/score-engraver.cc Ironically, this is the same problem scenario that led me to refactoring the GUILE GC in ~2002, in c8a1bdc460f892847d0fb3f1321cdeb305160bf8. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - hanw...@gmail.com - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen
