For a "sitting together playing with real wood" tournament,
that is not practical. The "long weekend" formula of 3 rounds a day
on Fri, Sat and Sun is doable for most people. 9 rounds Swiss
should be OK.

In the (open) Dutch Computer chess championships we usually play 11 round
within two weekends (Sat 3, Sun 3, Sat 3, Sun 2).
