It may be too that linux applications are by nature of the OS quicker

Thanks for all the comparisons, Nick, that was very interesting. If
I understand the history of LilyPond correctly, it is a Linux
application ported to Windows and OS X. So it's not surprising that
it's faster on the various Linux OSes. Maybe someday I'll get around
to buying an Intel Mac and can install all three OSes on their own
partitions and do a comparison that way.
I use LilyPond on a 1.33 gHz PPC iBook with 1 GB RAM, called from
Carbon Emacs (GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (powerpc-apple-darwin8.11.0, Carbon
Version 1.6.0)) and while LP is no speed demon, there are a *lot* of
calculations and processes happening and I don't expect a score to be
rendered in 3 seconds.
