I'm going to do a nessus scan of ~100 XP laptops. They will be gathered 
together by their owners just for the event, so I need to know the 
maximum time this could take.

All machines will be connected to a 10MBps LAN. The machine that's going 
to do the scanning is a 1GHz PIII with 512MB RAM and a 10MBps eepro100 
card, running Linux kernel 2.4.18.

When testing only one host, with a full portscan, it takes ~20mins. How 
would this time increase with the number of hosts that are tested in 
parallel?

Scanning needs to be as thorough as possible, so I can't just do a 
"fast" scan with Nmap to gain time.

TIA
