And of course you make heavy use of \set Score.skipTypesetting = ##t ?
So you don't have to wait so often ...

Not that this is very *helpful* but when I've had this situation, I
process the first half of the score separate from the second half,
adjusting page numbers if needed. I had to do this with my orchestra
piece -- it ended up saving an hour of processing time!

There are some attempts to optimize the speed; one simple patch
reduces the time required by something like 40%. But you should
expect such problems from an unstable development version.

Hello,
I finally finish my concert overture, which has just 250 measures, 34
pages. The compiling is a nightmare! When I used normal way, the computer
turned into a circumstance like it was about to crash. Then I used Process
Tamer, a small util program to reduce source wasting. At first, it's ok to
do anything while compiling, but after 5 minutes, the computer again
became very slow. Then I went away to listen to The Firebird. After its 45
minutes' music, Lilypond was still compiling. I checked the task manager,
and found it first used around 120M of RAM, but then continuous ascend to
over 520M, and then fall to 330M, and up to 472... After another about 50
minutes, The score was at last ready. The whole process took about 110
minutes!!! I'd like to know why Lilypond should use such a large memory,
since cpu is not taken too much (but instead, "system idle process.exe"
took very large percent (up to 94%) of cpu). I think I must buy a Win7
machine with 4 core cpu and 8gb RAM, otherwise I can't write a piece like
The Firebird, which will burn my current machine into dust :-)
