I did get the file to compile - it did take a few minutes (my own
compositions are 150 bars at the most so nothing like this)

I have a quite powerful desktop and use Linux, but I only saw 1 CPU being
used and never above 2.5GB of RAM (using the 'top' command - a bit like
Windows' Task Manager/Processes if you haven't used top before).
So is it only when you use 'showLastLength' that you get the problem or
even when you try to compile the whole score?
I commented out the showLastLength line in your file and while I got a load
of 'unterminated tie' and unexpected tempo change errors - expected when
using this command - it does compile with no problems
--snip-
lots of warnings..

Again I didn't notice much more usage in the RAM or CPU than before.
I know that that probably doesn't help that much. I do have a windows
machine I could try it on, but that wil have to wait for now as I have to
get to work!
I've attached your Zip file here in case anyone else with Windows wants to
give it a go.
