ISTR I had a problem like that way back when, so I upped the 
etimeout to 1800, then never did the math to see how long it 
actually took.  900 does seem to be a bit small though, its 15 
minutes, and just this machine alone takes around 25 for the 
estimate phase.  Multiple spindle setting to reflect which drive 
the DLE is on quiets the operations thrashing of the disks(2) at 
the expense of 2 or 3 minutes longer to do the estimates.

The estimate phase is a cpu hog too. :(
