I haven't used deep test (this was by Dan Manges / Thoughtworks, correct?). If I recall correctly, it only worked on test/unit. I don't know if anyone else was working on a version for rspec... As for spec_distributed, I had gotten it working, and as I recall, it was pretty easy to do (at least, on a non-rails project). The documentation for that is pretty straight forward. It solves the speed problem by throwing hardware at the problem - If you have n number of machines, your test suite should take 1/n the amount of time it usually does on one machine (assuming the machines of equal processing power).
