Oof.  I wouldn't use the HP plastic tank for 4x5 film, except as a last
resort.  There are other systems that are almost as compact and which will
give far more even and consistent results without the need for very long
development times.  For example, you could hand-agitate a small Jobo tank
with the 2509N sheet film reel.

Though Kodak no longer recommends it, I find Xtol diluted 1:2 is useful
for longer development times.  If you have very fresh developer and
ensure you have enough concentrate in the tank for the total number of
sheets it should work well.  Paul Butzi's web site has some times which
have worked well for me.
