My guess was pretty close for the test box I was running, it took
it 8.5 hours, and that was with the scsi bus running totally
in async mode.   System was multiuser, but the only other thing
running on it was a tail -f of the output from make world to
a xterm on gndrsh.  This was an ASUS PCI/I-486SP3G AMD DX2/66 8MB
on board PCI NCR controller, dual DEC 3053L's, and only 8MB of memory,
GENERIC kernel trimmed to match machine, but no speedup's turned on.

Haven't herd from him in a while...
