I don't know if you need all the power Lilypond offers for your program. If not, you might want to give abcm2ps ( http://moinejf.free.fr ) a try. It is not as powerful as lilypond, but much faster. It might even be fast enough for your purpose without needing to set up a ramdisk. But if you really want to use a ramdisk: abcm2ps is much easier to install - it is just one simple binary that you can copy to your ramdisk and it will be ready to use. It does not have the complex modular design that makes Lilypond more difficult to install by hand.
