Hello,
dont beat the messenger, its the donkey:
Sometimes ago I had the same problem and I messured the compilation times of
one and the same lilypond music file.
model age OS Processor memory
Compiletimet
Thinkpad x21 ca. 10 XP 700 MHz 392 MB
20 s
Thinkpad T42 ca. 3 XP 1,7 GHz 500 MB
12 s
Thinkpad x61s New VISTA Dual 1,6 GHz 1 GB
67 s - 90 s
Thinkpad x61s New VISTA Dual 1,6 GHz 2 GB
49 s - 76 s
Thinkpad x61s New Ubuntu (Linux) Dual 1,6 GHz 2 GB 4-5 s
Thinkpad x61s New XP Dual 1,6 GHz 2 GB
2 s
Mac Powerbook ca. 4 OSX 10.5 1,5 Ghz PPC 1 GB 16 s
So throw away Vista and you will see light at the end of the tunnel
