When I need to glue up six rib laminations at a time, even with the glue =
going onto a piece really fast, it still takes a good 10 minutes to get =
all the clamps (20 of 'em) on the jig and real snug (I'm working on a =
system to reduce this time). So I have the concern that gluing the rib =
together with this schedule may result in less-than-optimal glue joints.

Which is why our rib cauls are only six inches wide.

they?

Forget liquid hide glue--it's too inconsistent and sometimes doesn't =
really dry all that well.

Make your cauls six inches wide and Titebond works just fine.
