So what, you're telling me you've never compiled the famous
Illustrated Boulez-Ockeghem Variations (648pp.) on your mobile phone?

(That being said, Phil's "biggest single score" question is indeed
interesting: since every large LilyPond score I've seen so far are
split into several \score{}s, that undoubtedly makes them quite easier
to compile than a single 500-pages chunk.)

Mine is actually a \book, so isn't a ginormous long piece of music.
