It's a new )MacBook Pro, 8 gigs of RAM. )It can run Logic, Sibelius, many tabs of Chrome, Mail, etc. etc. without )slowing down at all, so I'm wondering what Lilypond is doing that's so )memory intensive and how I can fix it. The Lilypond I downloaded is )2.15.4. Any ideas? ) ----------- [James' reply:] I assume you are using the inbuilt editor (LilyPad) that comes with the software (as opposed to the text editor?).
I suggest if you open Activity Monitor and then see exactly what LilyPond (or LilyPad as this editor is called) is actually using. I'd been using 2.15.1-3 on my 4 GB iMac (2nd gen) with no noticeable issues.
