Sounds like DECstation results.  Building all the Redhat 7.0 packages which
are on oss + some others which could build for MIPS but don't for some
reason to the point where the build fails takes approx 40h on an Origin 200
with 2 180MHz R10000 processors and 1.5gb RAM.

I recently was told there is some m68k VME system out there which needs
approx. 3 days to rebuild it's kernel.
