I have never upgraded past 2.19.15 because on mac they get like molasses
after that point.

In any case, when I try an essential version of your code, I don't need to
fiddle with Timing.measurePosition.  And there are no beaming problems that
I can see.

If you put the repeat within a \repeat command, you don't need to specify
the repeat barlines.
Since your barline specification indicated you wanted a second repeated
section, I added a second repeat and some more notes to demonstrate that.

\version "2.19.15"

{
    \time 2/4

    \repeat volta 2 {
        \partial 8 e8
        a16. a32 a16. b32     b32 a16. b32 d16.
        e16. a32 a32 a16.          b16. e32 e32 g16.
        a4                                   a8
    }

    \repeat volta 2 {
        g8 2 4.
    }
}


HTH,
