That's to be expected: page-breaking is *the* most time-consuming
process in LilyPond. Using
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/minimal-page-breaking
should be fine and harmless in this specific case.
(On an unrelated note, I recently found that refreshing large PDF
documents takes forever when point-and-click is enabled.)
