I was wondering...
if you cannot optimize the code itself very much. maybe it is possible
to improve the way Lilypond parses the ly file.
When I am editing and tweaking a file, I need to change one little
thing and recompile it.
As far as I can see it, lilypond then always runs the complete file
from scratch...
Maybe it is possible to provide lilypond with a kind of diff function
that enables it to determine the changes and change only what is
necessary ?
(by saving states for example...) Or is this impossible ?
If this could work it could mean quite a speed improvement...

Wahou. This used to be around 40 minutes, in an slightly older

Lily is getting so cool. Kuddos to Han-Wen and Jan!
Thanks!
the downside to this is that there is little left to optimize, I still
think Lily is a bit slow, but with painstaking optimization, I've only
been been able to get some 10 to 30 % during the 2.7 cycle.
