As far as I understand (I could be wrong), the amount of time it takes
to do a bar check is by far outweighed by the more complex tasks that
Lilypond does -- layout, collision avoidance, line-breaking,
page-breaking, etc.. So much so it probably only adds up to roundoff
error in the total computing time.
