Distributed?  Not really.  It can't be done in parts, and there's only two 
sizes (US and A4).  It also really only needs to be done once per release 
(although I suppose it would be nice to do for point releases.)

It took about two days each (run serially) on a 2xOpteron 246 using debian 
unstable's:

openjade: 1.3.2-8
opensp: 1.5.1/0-4
docbook-dsssl: 1.79-3
