Lightweight? In what sense?
With jedit/lilypondtool you surely need to install Java, Jedit & 
Lilypondtool from. But after that you only need one app and you have 
everything without tedious configuration of point-and-click and whatnot. 
You only need to configure the path to lilypond binary and shortcuts if 
you wish to.
With LilyPondTool I just press F7, that saves the file, compiles with 
LilyPond and reloads the PDF, then I switch to the viewer with Alt-TAB 
(if it is not already visible).

With only vim and lilypond I have a working setup that installs and runs 
easily on my low-end EeePC laptop.

I have installed lilypond/jedit/lilypondtool on a Windows XP laptop and 
it works fine indeed. But I hardly use this laptop.

On my Linux laptop I prefer Vim because I use it for everything. 
Personal taste.

I run jEdit/LilyPondTool on my EEE 901 as well :-)

I agree, the best is to stick with one favorite editor.
