that's true, but lily should handle it. and indeed it does. the problem
was actually this code:

  \time 6/8
  cis( b4) \acciaccatura \times 2/3 { \stemUp cis32([ \acciaccatura b 
\acciaccatura a] }
  b8.)[ cis16-. d8-.] |

it makes lily hang (I filed a bug report)

the rest of the piece is compiled using less than 200 megs here (my
system is similar of Joshua's)

from the file you sent, it seems this tool generates wrong code. for
instance, it generates

\time 6/8
r1

when it should generate r2. for a full bar, or better yet, R2.
