In a complex score with a DynamicsStaff placed above the music for
markups and another below for the dynamics an unusually large space

I pared the complex score down to this MWE:

A Dynamics context  by default is centred between the staves above and below. Adjusting this behaviour might be what you need.

\version "2.24"

marks = {
                %This line is needed.
                \repeat unfold 40 {s1 }
                }
music = {
                 \repeat unfold 80 {c''1 }
                  }
dyns = {
                     \repeat unfold 80 { <>  \f c''1 }
                  }
\paper {
        %this line is needed.
        system-system-spacing.minimum-distance = 15
       }

\score {
          <<   \new Dynamics \with { \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-affinity = #DOWN } <<\marks >>
               \new Staff <<   \music  >>
               \new Dynamics \with { \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-affinity = #UP } << \dyns >>
           >>
       }
