How much time should be used for a puzzle [mins] to get max benefit and to improve pattern recogniti

@Muinthechamp said in #9:

If your doing under 600, then it should take like 1 min or 2, but under 300 should be like 2 min or 3, but normal should be 4-5 min and harder 300 should be 5-6 and harder 600 should be 6-7 minutes, if you want to improve your game play then everyday you should do 10 under 600 and under 300 puzzles (5 each) and 6 normal's and harder 300, so 16 each day, then you will improve to the point where you can do 20 puzzles each day or even more!!

300 elo is not a 1 minute difference ... 300 is a "4x time or more" ... i.e. suppose you take 15 seconds on a certain level at -600, -300 should average to a minute or more, normal at around 5 minutes, +300 would require 15-30 mins, and +600 should be almost impossibile(unless you play the "guess game"), usually asking for candidate moves that you are not even considering...
