Hi!
As requested, I've done a quick overview of the memory stats of
lily (1.3.79) on the piano score that's been giving me so much grief.
I used watch in conjunction with ps to get some general figures.
Processing the "stripped" file, i.e. with no \property calls
except \stemup and \stemdown (for the SATB layout on two staves,
ps reports lily's size as hovering around 12-15M, with between
5M and 2M in swap at any given time.
Processing the same file with the property calls needed to
change stem/slur/articulation/script directions within voices so
the score looks good, lily's size climbed to 28+M, with 15M
being swapped in and out. Youch!
I'm running a challenged system, if you recall--a P100 with 24M
RAM. As things stand now, it really does look like I'm going to
have to give up lily until that situation changes. Guess I'll
just lurk on the mailing list in the meantime. :(
