The exclusive use of spacer rests may be a bit perverse to process by 
LilyPond; is it faster if you replace all spacer rests s1 with full rests 
R1?  I think this has little to do with your installation.

On my Intel 64 bit box, I get it to compile in 94 seconds:

real    1m33.675s
user    1m28.378s
sys     0m0.721s

This is much for such a simple score.
