My main frustration with Lilypond is speed. In my setup (Win-XP, P4 3.0Ghz, 1G ram) to process a fairly simple scoresheet (2 or 3 pages) it takes about 8 seconds. That might not seem a great deal, but it is really annoying when one is doing lots of retouching (edit one bit, compile, see results

Re: Speed-up compiling

general suggestions which help to speed up the compiling process? The one thing you could do is greatly increase your ram to 1GB. You'll think you have a new computer for $50-$150. Here's why. Here's the problem. You're thrashing to disk, which means the amount of memory used by lilypond is far

Why lilypond on windows is VERY slow?! It takes almost 30 seconds to complete something that compiles in less than a second on Fedora Core 4... I'm shocked. For some reasons I can't use Fedora at home and it's very annoying to wait so much for a little correction :( I thought lilypond is
