Hello,

     I'm curious how long it takes for other people to run lilypond on the 

following simple score:

\relative c' {

  c4 d e fis

}

I'm on winxp sp3, pentium 1.7Ghz with 512mb ram and it consistently takes 

7 seconds to complete, whether I do it on the command line or in 

LilypondTool.
