32bit sparc packages take 3-5 weeks on a cluster of 5 machines, depending
on how many crashes happen.
by crash, do you mean hardware problems, operating system reliability (like the one I am possibly experiencing) or userland problems?

PS: I am in a similar position as John. I cannot run my machines 24/7 because of noise, but they could contirbute building. ALthough however, being set back from dual-Ross 72Mhz with cache, to a single SM50 50Mhz no cache... is a hard hit, and if even that is unsuitable...
