Full majority. If the town can't come to a conclusion in a sensible amount of time, then the deadline should serve to punish them for their laziness. Why should different rules apply just because you're
not
getting anywhere?

OR:

Half majority. If the game's taking this long already, the last thing you want to do is slow it down and risk turning the players off the game even more. Requiring a full majority also makes it easier for the scum to stall to a no-lynch.

Which argument do you personally sympathise with better?
