One of the interesting things to come out of the excellent
presentation at Usenix was that there are people out there
who know things like how much power you can get out of a child
at various ages, etc.
How many 8-year old children == 1 pit pony?
We could work out how long and how many children it would
take to compile Linux on this maybe by starting with the time
and power taken to compile it on some known machine.
