Based on performance data of the SESAM/T chi L hybrid Monte Carlo simulatio
ns at lattice spacing a = 0.079 fm, we prognosticate the computer time need
ed for producing full QCD vacuum configurations with N-f = 2 Wilson fermion
s, going deeper towards the chiral limit on correspondingly increasing latt
ice sizes. In doing so particular attention is paid to autocorrelation effe
cts and scaling of iterative solvers within HMC.
