Can you upload the save when it works and doesn't lag to hell?
I've noticed that most DF saves lag to hell when run on MC. Dunno why.
edit: Could you run it with a program like MCedit, and copy the actual ship into a non-DF save?
I'm not fully familiar with it, but I'll see what I can do. At least I planted it in a good spot where I might get a clean copy.
Wish me luck, because it's doing that lag again. However, with as little as I see, it's looking nicer already.
If it all works especially well. I'll see if I can upload an MCEdit schematic of the ship, if it isn't too large a file.
EDIT:
Just opened it up in MCEdit.

HOLY CRAP!!!!!EDIT EDIT:
More progress made. I copied it (with some of the access docking bridge) and pasted it (schematic-wise) to a new world. Gonna explore it now. It looks beautiful, even in MCE.
EDIT EDIT EDIT:
... m-m-m-mmmm MEEP!!! From my spawn-point in my new world + Glimmer-pack, this thing looks awesome. Definitely a screen-cap worthy shot here. Even better, FPS is excellent.
EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT:
For this special occasion, I'm going large-scale screenshots. Something wallpaper-worthy.
Here's a hint at it's scale: I have far rendering distance, and I can see fog on the far end. It's frakking huge. The shadow casting inside and out actually attracts mobs, so I'm capping images in peaceful mode.

There may be quite a few screenshots. Some of them may be a bit dark too. I'll try my best to summarize them. Still collecting.
