Does any one have any recommendations and real world

Remember a U60 is an old system and that build time doesn't seem to bad
for its age.
My recommendation are to use the -i option for an incremental build
whenever you can. If you are working a specific section of the code
just build that portion while you are developing and save the complete
build for when you are done for the day. Heck that is probably why it's
called 'nightly'. :-)

Note that dmake is a big win, even for single cpu machines since
it allows you to do something useful while waiting for the disk.
SPARC builds involve several separate kernel architectures, x86 just has
32 and 64 bit.
There are significant parts of the build that are rather serial;
Amdahl's law is alive and well in our builds.
