but we really need more information. The gap between 1.9.8 and 2.10 is
huge, so no further action will be taken unless somebody narrows down
the version. At the very least, we need to know the stable version that
began the larger files (ie an even X in 2.X.0).
The TeX system shouldn't affect how lilypond behaves... at least for
modern versions (2.0 and higher? 2.2 and higher?)

OK, here's twinkle-pop.ly on 2.0:
Input:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Output:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notice that the size is 25370. I can't run this version of lilypond
any more on a modern ubuntu system, because of the TeX version
changes, but I believe all I said was "lilypond twinkle-pop.ly".
Here it is on 2.10.33:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here the size is 60139, more than twice as big. And there are files
that have much bigger differences than this.
I believe the size difference had actually happened before 2.8.
