OK, I read Peter's notes about suitable TeX configuration, and with
that plus suitably patched openjade I get this from a standing start:
$ time make postgres.pdf
... much output ...
Output written on postgres.pdf (1670 pages, 13561269 bytes).
Transcript written on postgres.log.
real 8m23.949s
user 8m14.263s
sys 0m9.241s
$
But my goodness it produces a lot of TeX warnings :-(. I can understand
that no one was gonna look into those with a three-day turnaround time,
but maybe now we can think about cleaning them up? Personally I
haven't used TeX/LaTeX in anger in about ten years, but most of what
scrolled past looked easily fixable, and at least some of it would
translate to visible ugliness in the output.
