Recently Werner committed a few fixes of typos with possibly ugly
consequences in the area of page breaking, so it might be worthwhile
crosschecking with current master.
I've redone testings with the OP's original code, i.e.
{
\time 4/4
\repeat unfold 1000 { c4 d e f } % TEN PAGES of music
\repeat unfold 1000 { f1 } % + SIX MORE PAGES of music
\repeat unfold 1000 { c4 d e f } % BUT WHEN ADDING MORE PAGES,
fail NOW
}
Using 2.19.82 (from the installer) and 2.21.0 out of 915799cad7
musicexp.py: Use python 2.4 syntax.
Always restarting the computer after each test.
For 2.19.82 it's finished after 28m4,740s
For 2.21.0 after 24m50,214s
Memory-usage seems to be similar.
I didn't oberve a difference in the final pdfs
