    Not for a decade, how long is a piece of string though. It depends on how much RAM, RAM speed, CPU, motherboard.

    I tend to use one pass if it's a newly built system, or overnight if I suspect problems.
    Typically memory speed scales with capacity, so if it took more than about 2 hours for a pass I'd be raising an eyebrow.
