This is a ratio of 6.8 in this case. The 'with' version has
rectangular annotations for every single clickable object in the form

<</Type/Annot
/Rect [114.204 764.709 120.76 770.188]
/Border [0 0 0]
/A<</S/URI
/URI(textedit://path-to-your-lilypond-file.ly:1:2:2)>>
/Subtype/Link>>endobj
14 0 obj

This is many chars added for every single clickable object, in a
non-compressed form. On another side, PS commands that draw the notes
are compressed into the PDF. Very small files do not show this size
ratio because there is a large common part on both files.

As you can see, the full path of the file is included in every link,
so you'll be surprised if you compile the document into a short
pathame folder such as /tmp
