I'm not sure the smartest option is to place the emulation load most on
the machines with the least computational resources to spare.

NetBSD used to be about actually _supporting_ old hardware, not tyranny
of the recent majority.

If you want software that _supports_ old MIPS, I'd suggest old NetBSD.
It might not help, but, depending on your use case, sit might be worth
trying.

If you have trouble finding it - I think ftp.netbsd.org no longer
contains anything older than a version or two - I've got copies of
versions from 1.0 to 6.1.2 I can hook you up with.  (I forget why I
stopped at 6.1.2.)
