I would not bother with NFS for this, portage has some options you can
add to make.conf to transfer the binary packages using HTTP, namely
FEATURES=getbinpkg and the variable PORTAGE_BINHOST, you can add those
to the less powerful machine, check the manual about make.conf for the
details on each.
An example:
PORTAGE_BINHOST="http://10.0.0.X:8000";
Just make it appropriate for your LAN, then run a simple HTTP server
on the directory that contains the binary packages on the powerful
machine, no need install any HTTP server package, python can do it
[1][2]:
For example:
$ cd $PKGDIR
$ python2 -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
or
$ python3 -m http.server 8000
You can even add that as part of the service that creates the chroot
as suggested before.
