Has anyone had good - or bad or indifferent- results by installing the lilypond software onto a ram disk?
I find that my fairly spiffy server, typesetting a very small score, takes about 12-15 seconds ... unless I've just typeset another one, and the program is still mostly loaded in memory, in which case it takes maybe 3 seconds. If I could make that speedup permanent, it would be huge for my (interactive) work. And that's what a ram disk may possibly enable - anyone done this? (I work on a mac server but any linux/unix/pc experience would be very interesting to me.)
