Put in a rather large addition a couple of years ago and had a space 24 x 40 feet with two stories to prime and paint. Could put on a coat of primer in about an two hours with a pressure sprayer. Do a good job of masking the windows and do it before flooring an it works great. Almost all the walls were white so used the same system method for that. You can recruit a crew to follow along to roll the finish coat which will give it a slightly different texture. You will need a complete covering suit and hood plus a really good respirator and goggles. The down side is paint dust everywhere.
