After talking with Ray McKinney (who remembered Han-Wen saying something about parsing out embedded links in relation to point-and-click), here's the actual solution: invoking lilypond with -dno-point-and-click on the commandline causes the problem I posted at the start of the thread to disappear *completely*. Put another way, ghostscript chokes on very large pages (tabloid at size 6 staff with tons of tuplets) probably not because of the number of postscript objects *but because of the very large number of embedded point-and-click links* such a file must contain (if rendered with point-and-click turned on). Postscript files rendered with -dno-point-and-click contain no such embedded links and cause ghostscript no trouble at all. This is a perfect solution for me since I'm not relying on point-and-click (at least not yet, anyway!). Thanks, Ray.
