Movei is the fastest program at calculating perft that doesn't use hash tables, followed by Yace (to my knowledge). I would estimate perft 10 would take 40 days at best on fast hardware using Movei, and another 46 days using Yace. The work could be split between several computers easily (ex. computing perft 9 from the position after 1. h3, etc., and adding the results together). Of course, I believe perft 10 from the starting position has already been verified multiple times, and perft 11 would probably take 31-33 times longer (over 3 years). It would definitely have to be a distributed project.
