@code{optimal-page-breaks}. If you are having trouble with the new page
breakers, you can enable the old one as a workaround.
+@funindex \bookpart
+
+When a book has many scores and pages, the page breaking problem may be
+difficult to solve, requiring large processing time and memory. To ease
+the page breaking process, @code{\bookpart} blocks are used to divide
+the book into several parts: the page breaking occurs separately on each
+part. Different page breaking functions may also be used in different
+book parts.
+
+@example
+\bookpart @{
+ \header @{
+ subtitle = "Preface"
+ @}
+ \paper @{
+ %% In a part consisting mostly of text,
+ %% ly:minimal-breaking may be prefered
+ #(define page-breaking ly:minimal-breaking)
+ @}
+ \markup @{ @dots{} @}
+ @dots{}
+@}
+\bookpart @{
+ %% In this part, consisting of music, the default optimal
+ %% page breaking function is used.
+ \header @{
+ subtitle = "First movement"
+ @}
+ \score @{ @dots{} @}
+ @dots{}
+@}
+@end example

To understand how each of these different settings work, we begin
by looking at an example that includes no overrides at all.

Note that @code{line-break-system-details} takes an associative list of

subproperty of @code{line-break-system-details}.

Note that here we assign two different values to the
every system and every staff. Finally, note that @code{alignment-offsets}
specifies the vertical positioning of staves but not of staff groups.
