The more damage you want to do the longer it takes.
Would having control of a massive number of computers for a few minutes be enough?
Definitely not. To give you a sense of scale, a new bitcoin block comes out every five minutes and it would take control of the block chain for multiple ‘ticks’ to do serious damage.
For how long would you have to control the computing power? Would having control of a massive number of computers for a few minutes be enough?

Ten minutes, on average.
Thanks.
