The former. > Could you give an example of how you use it? set LILYPOND_GC_YIELD=45 I'm in the process of trying this. It does limit the working-set, with a value of 45 to around 1GB, at the expense of greatly increasing the paging load, but it did not stop 2.13.14 from crashing in the same way. I'm just about to try it with the latest released binary before I report.
