Thanks, you're quite right CPU is not the limiting factor for the
build. Disk access and usage of swap when compiling
input/regression/collated-files slows down the build to a crawl for me.

The problem here is that lilypond builds up memory from 400MB to ~1GB
without releasing...
Most of these allocations don't seem to be memory leaks, but rather due
to guile.

It only takes that amount of memory for big builds. I've never seen much over 1 Gig total memory during a make with 8 CPUs all running lilypond.
