Hmmm, you're talking about a demonstration, so you could as well start with stage 3 and maybe use a more lightweight window manager like FVWM2. Don't know how long X will compile on this machine, though.
What about having a mix of binary packages for the big ones and live
compilation for some small packages. With the right balance you should be
able to demonstrate a Gentoo install.
